I'm planning to install a fiberglass LE airdam replica originally from Performance Products that I got from ebay. This site was offline, so I didn't think to get the one from Morphenspectra which seems to fit better.

My plan is to line up the airdam on the car and mark locations then use a hand drill to drill appropriately sized holes in the 4 mounting tabs. Any tips?

I was also trying to think of a way to add 2 additional tabs to attach the sides of the airdam. Would this be advantageous? Could I simply glue something on? Drill 2 holes on the upper part on the sides.

My LE spoiler maybe different from yours. It has to verticle tabs about a foot from the center each side. I didn't use the tabs at all. I already had two holes drilled in the bottom of the front quarter panel where the spoiler wraps around the side of the car. I drilled two more holes through the spoiler into the bottom of the bumper at a convenient reachable spot. This made it easier to snug the spoiler up to the bumper bottom and I don't have to remove the bumper to remove the spoiler.

Hope this helps.
