Default aeroworkz cf front splitter

if you have one, was wondering how you had it installed.. with double sided tape on the back of the front or none at all.. tried with double sided tape but both corners closer to the grille was off by a couple of mm off the bumper.. so i took the tape off.. much better fit now with just the screws on the bottom.. the second pic btw has the double sided tape.. took it off after..

I had my body shop install it when I had my bumper resprayed.
They used double-sided tape. No complaints.

how much of a gap do you have on that right corner? mine was way off.. plus, that part doesn't even have a space for a double sided tape (that part where the hump begins)..

Thin double sided tape along the edges that touch the bumper and also drilled in a couple of screws where the holes were. No gaps and extremely tight on the body, no way of falling off. Figured the holes are underneath anyways, nobody is going to see the drilled holes if you decide to change lips.

^^^ yup, added extra holes on the bottom and added screws.. never thought about thin double sided tape.. where can you get those? The 3m double sided tape is just too thick.. and pushes the hump part away from the bumper..
