Default Trunk Spoiler Installation Question

Hi everyone, I recieved my trunk spoiler this morning

I want to tape it on but there are 3 screws and I dont plan on drilling 3 holes in my trunk. Do I just tape the thing on WITH the 3 screws on or do I have to remove the 3 screws some how?

Lol you can't tape it with three screws silly... from what I heard you can pull them out.... there is a recent thread about this same thing check it out. And I would recomend using the templet that come with it to align it when u stick it on.

Hahaha, how are you expecting to tape the spoiler on with the bolts still attached. Either shave the bolts off with a Dremmel or pull them out with pliers. I just pried mine out with pliers and used lots of 3M double sided tape to stick the spoiler on.

the 3m tape with the spoiler was enough to stick on.. just make sure u get it on the frist time.if you mess up and start sticking and unsticking it will lose its stickiness. i just used pliers and pulled side to side untill the screw came off.
