Hey guys.
I just got this Wing West spoiler today.
The spoiler came with double side tape all the way around, and 2 bolts on each end.
Should I drill holes into the trunk and use the bolts.
Or can I get away with just use the doble side tape.
I live in Florida, in the summer get really hot here.
I'm not sure if the glue on double side tape will hold the spoiler.

I saw a few guys from here have the WW spoiler.
thank-s...

 

I did both on my WW spoiler.
I think just using the 3m tape will not keep it down.

 

Mine has the bolts holding it on as well. There are actually marks on the underside of the trunk as to where the bolt holes should be, so you can use those as your guide, but I would still measure first.

 

You could attatch it wil the double sided tape only. That is, if you wanted it to fly off on the highway and probably go through someones windshield. lol.

 

That tape if applied properly will not let it fly off. Its very strong.
If you dont have the factory spoiler already on your car i see no reason to drill holes in your trunk lid

 

I have a WW spoiler with only 3m double sided tape, hasnt fallen off in over a year...Just heat the tape up, clean trunk with alcohol, will stick tight, trust me..

 

But in Florida get about 110 F on the summer.
Do you think the double side tape will hold the spoiler

 

I just found this DIY about the spoiler.

Do the holes from the WW spoiler line up with the holes from the factory spoiler on the trunk?
Can I use regular drill bit to drill the holes?

 

From what I've read, they are slightly off. You may need to widen the holes a little.

 

yes it will hold

 

Even after they baked the spoiler for the paint
My wife told me if the glue on the tape not gonna work as good after they bake the spoiler for the paint
she told me to drill the holes, but I don't want to.
In the future we might sell the car get newer TL
ps: I just don't want to see my spoiler fly down I95

 

Like someone said, as long as you prep the area and do everything correctly, it will hold just fine. Are you going to take off the spoiler once you go to sell the car?

 

drive it till it craps out, then it wont matter whether or not there're holes in the trunk cause it'll be sittin in the junk yard

 

Thank-s guys for the info.
But I'm going to use the bolts for the spoiler.
Just because Florida get about 110F in the summer.
And my wife told me so.
ps: It's her car anyway. I don't want get the blame if she see the spoiler fly off on I95.

 

......God bless you for that Information.......
