My bad man. If I woulda thought about it I woulda traded you out my whole trunk for your trunk so you wouldn't have to drill. Luckily the spoiler will cover the holes. I dunno about the tape, might try bondo or somthing to fill the holes so that it dosent rust out. Water will be trapped between the spoiler and the trunk. Also I'd look into getting double sided tape or some sort of liner to keep out dirt from getting in like my trunk had when I removed it.
