Default Rear Spoiler Install

Did anyone know that the rear spoiler requires drilling holes to install (the Lexus factory spoiler)? I thought it was just adhesive. Has anyone installed one with adhesive tape only and had problems? I don't want the thing to blow off! Thanks.

there are so many threads.......search and look in the FAQ

And yes, people have installed it with just 3M tape and it holds fine

Do a search... you'll find many a thread discussing just this topic. Some people drill, some cut the bolts off and use only the supplied adhesive. Both work equally well. It will not blow off.
