hey guys, I just recently bought a SSM TL '05 and I sorta caught that mod bug. I was looking around for a rear under body spoiler and I stumbled upon acurapartspeople.com and it states that "no drilling or cutting for installation" are required for the rear under body spoiler, but based on my research everyone else has been removing the rear bumper and then drilling holes to install the spoiler. the site is http://acurapartspeople.com/SearchPr...r+Body+Spoiler

I'm pretty confused about this whole thing and I'm hoping some one with prior experience with this can have an answer..

 

I didn't drill to install mine, but you are "told" to in the instructions.

 

Ya I drilled

 

hey princelybug, so if you didnt drill to install the under body spoiler, how did you go about the installation? don't tell that acurapartspeople is recommending that I use 3M to attach it to the bumper....

 

You have to drill 4 holes in the bumper for clips to help secure the rear kit on. That way at high speeds it won't come off due to tape failure, and as well it won't sag. It also helps a bit with theft protection.

 

My bumper fit so snug that I didn't drill nor did I use the tape. I just fit it around the stock bumper and put the screws on in the wheel wells.

But, I advise you to drill and use the tape. Just follow the directions given!

 

oh okay then. I guess I'll get to it and follow the instructions. I just kinda got hung up on the fact that site said you don't need to drill or cut anything for installation

 

If anyone is interested in this kit I can get it for $770 shipped.

As per OP, you don't need to drill it because its screwed in on the wheel well and its also snapped in on the bottom. If I had to guess it would be from tape failure but I have never seen that as its a strong tape or theft.
