grille off, drille a few little holes and buy a pop rivet gun and rivet the thing on, wont budge then...

i also added some glue to the equation and then stuck some rivets on.

i was thinking of buying them as theyre cheap, so if they dont look good in the flesh you havent lost much.

I attached mine last weekend, and tbh I found it is better to apply the spoiler when the grill's on the car as there is a slight curve in  my grill.

I had to bend the spoiler slightly to fit it properly, but this meant that I was able to drill the holes exactly where they needed to be, rather than putting stress on them when bending the grill.

I'm sure that both ways are good, but I'm pleased with my result :D

usually have it colour-coded first, then stick/rivet it on.
