mugen spoiler

I am planning to buy Mugen spoiler soon. How many holes are needed to drill on the deck lid and quarter panels?

if you put the spoiler on correctly, it's going to be very difficult for someone to rip it off. there's 3M adhesive tape primer that you can spray on the contact area just prior to installation (I think 30-60 minutes). This primer will change the properties of your car's paint and when the tape hits it, and then sets, it will be nearly impossible to remove.

like turbo says, "perhaps" someone would steal it, but it wouldn't be easy.

There are screws that secure the corner pieces. The screws actually go on where the quarter panel tapers under the hood, so you won't see it. Also, there are clips that are screwed into the main piece that secure the center piece to the deck lid. All this plus the 3m double-sided tape. Essentially, I can't imagine how someone could steal it without destroying the spoiler.

I thought people usually mess with spoilers with LED brake lights.

Forgot to ask the spoiler is very close to the "3.2TL" emblem. Do I need to remove it before installing?
