^+1....... You just measure to make sure it's even and then stick it on.. Mock it up with white tape if you have to.

a good trick i learned get a spray bottle with a mix of rubbing alcohol and water so that you can move and adjust before it dries.

Sorry looks like its not gonna happen. Here is the story i got the polyurethane jp rep. The body shop told me that its hard to mold. So i guess il just do it without the spoiler.

They cant mold it? that seems like a half *** body shop to me. My friend owns a body shop and he says that it can be easily molded to the bumper.
