Fitting a BBS front spoiler

Post by Dan323i »

Picked up a cheap (as in needs a bit of TLC, but genuine) BBS front spoiler a while back. Went to do a trail-fit of it yesterday in the naive assumption I could just take off the front bumper, offer it up so it slipped over the bumper mounts or something similar and that would be it, but is seems there's more to it than that. By the looks of it I have to drill quite a few holes into the body work, is that right or am I missing something?
