Roof Spoiler Install Dilemma!!

Roof Spoiler Install Dilemma!!
Hey guys.
Just received an eBay roof spoiler for ~$45 shipped.
It is polyurethane and quality is great, amazing for the price.
The piece itself is not abs plastic, it's polyurethane like I mentioned, and it's a bit heavy
Will the simple alcohol prep and heavy duty 3m tape hold it up?
I knew it would be heavier than abs plastic, but it seems too heavy.
the tape will hold it up no problem im sure (tape is rated for 105 lbs), but its durability is what I question.
anybody have any insight?
Thanks in advance

This is the same type of 3M tape that came with my roof spoiler that I got from (cough) ebay Its holding up pretty good with Guam's heat and rainy weather and some ocassional 130mph+ pulls here and there

I got the $100 ebay carbon fiber roof spoiler.. It wasn't heavy at all actually it was very light.
3m tape and it was good to go. It has been through high wind velocity testing and the car wash daily and no problem.
I never saw one for 50$ on ebay.. either put it on with 3m or return it.

The right kind of tape and you're fine. I've never had any parts like this fall off any of my cars before. I personally have kinda weak 3M tape but the tape that usually comes with these kinds of parts has always held up with zero issues.
Great price! Wind actually pushes down on the roof spoiler so it's not like it has much wind resistance to work against. The pics a few posts above is the kind I have always used = zero issues. Just get some of that and no matter what you do you'll be fine.
