Hey guys silly question but, do I have to drill holes for that ED lip spolier to fit onto the boot?
Or can I just use tape or some adhesive, sounds like the lazy way out but the benefits of sticking on is more flexibility if I or the next owner want to remove it, no holes to worry about! Or can I get someone to fit it professionally? Only because I'm a bit challeneged in that department and prone to effin it badly if I try fitting it myself. But who do I call to fit one of those bad boys!?

Well the standard XR* lip spoliers have bolts built into the rubber, so you can either drill holes on your bootlid or grind them off and use double sided tape/urethane

that urethane ИИИИ can be pretty hard to get off if its been there a long time...
You know the plastic windshield things they had on the drivers side door? I had to sand that adhesive stuff back. Personally I think in the long run it'd be easier to drill the holes and have to bog them up and paint later...
