Installing Roof spoiler
Can anyone tell me how this is done?
|
Pretty much just double sided tape. You can add screws if you want.

If one were to use screws, would you screw directly into the hatch? |
Yup. I used screws and double sided tape on mine, then filled the holes above the screws.

post some pics
|
are you talking about the forsight spoiler?
|
duct tape and super glue
|
I have 3M heavy duty automotive trim tape for installing it.
Don't forget (as per the phone call last night) you need to drill the hole for the washer nozzle. I have the drills if you need that too. |

Is it really just double sided tape? That sounds chincey as hell... I always thouhgt there were studs or something... man that kinda turns me off to it... and I LOVE that thing! |
As long as the surface is clean when you apply the trim tape, there will be no issue.
Both the rear spoilers on my RX-8, and on my 335i, I installed with 3M trim tape and there was no lift or loosening even at 140 mph. |
wail RX-8s can do 140MPH?!?!?! LOL J/K. i cant find a pic of this spoiler any pics?
