Front Spoiler Ground Effects Kit Installation

The instructions for installing the Front Spoiler Ground Effects Lip are lengthy and call for drilling into the front bumper... I didn't do any of that... The stock front lip is held in place by 9 screws and 2 clips... The Front Spoiler Ground Effects Kit has the same 9 screw holes and 2 clip holes... Plus, it has some double stick tape on the ends to hold the tips against the front bumper... I just installed the new Front Spoiler Ground Effects using the same hardware as the original lip, and the factory double-stick tape that came on the Front Spoiler holds the ends of the spoiler tightly against the bumper... No drilling, no extra tape... I'm sure with drilling and more tape it would be more secure, but if anything is going to rip this Front Spoiler off, it's going to take the entire front bumper with it since there are 9 large screws holding it in...

First Picture: Car with the stock front lip...
Second Picture: Stock front lip removed...
Third Picture: This is on each end of the spoiler, there is a clip and a screw... There are 2 clips in total, one on each end of the spoiler...
Fourth Picture: These are the screws that hold the front spoiler in place... There are 9 screws in total... 7 of them look like this, and are by themselves, the other 2 are on the very end of the spoiler, next to the clips...
Fifth Picture: These "tabs" were on the front spoiler, I think you are supposed to cut them partially when you drill holes in the bumper to install the spoiler, but I didn't do any drilling so I just snapped them off... They were just glued on and came right off...
Sixth-Tenth Picture: Front Spoiler installed...
