Fitting a rear spoiler..

Replied by 300bhpton on topic Fitting a rear spoiler..
What sort of age vehicle is it?
Drilling may well cause potential rust generation locations and/or water ingress. Plus the need to remove trim. But would provide the most solid fitment.
I believe the 4th Gen JimnyStyle vehicle (the one on their site) only uses 3M tape to hold the spoiler in place.
No need to drill and easy fitment. Although I guess given enough time it may not hold as well, but I really wouldn't like to say. It might have the potential to damage the paint, but shouldn't if it was well polished before sticking in place.
I guess worse case would be if it did fall off, you may not know until some time later on.
