    yep, next step for me was to go under the car drill some holes and throw on some large washers and screw it on.

    i was posting to see what methods you guys use...

    yeah i tried that, found that the vibrations ended up unscrewing the screws,
    also, cable tie the two pieces together, can never had enough protection

    I prefer to leave them unsecured. Best to rip your spoiler off than rip your bumper off because your lip is secured nicely.

    yep 2 zip-ties that go through the mounting holes in the front section has worked and does not look tooo shabby.

    it normally would bust open at the front and start skidding along the ground, however now its staying on yay!

    thanks for your comments.

    Yeah, the decent flexible ones are a must over the very brittle ones. Mine is still going strong, although a little battered
