Got this spoiler from Lexus factory style, it came in the same color of the car. do some research, there are lot of different style of spoilers out there, but I personally like the factory style.

Most OEM's require to drill holes. I can't comment on this one exactly. However on all my previous vehicles I simply double side taped the spoiler on with-out drilling the holes specified by the manufacturer. I always do this in the summer so it can bake in the sun and really stay on there good. I've never lost a spoiler or even had one peel up after many many miles driven and car washes. Always use 3M

Well it comes with the screws for holes but in all honesty, 3M tape will hold the factory spoiler just fine. It's weighs less than a pound.

the holes just give more security and prevent warranty claims from weakening tape/falling off in car washes, etc.
