The underneath of the hood, 2 holes are ready, just need to remove the lid


However, there are another 2 holes u require to drill

Masking tape

Place the Hood spoiler on the masking tape and use a pen to mark the place for drilling


Then drill the holes one by one




I use a cirgarette butt to drip some paint on the hole to avoid corrosion

Then tuck the spoiler into those holes and screw back with

Nice job and great write up and pics thumbsup.gif
Smart move using the Masking tape - helps to mark out where the holes are to go and stops the drill from slipping all over the place wink.gif
Neat idea with the cigarette butt smile.gif

Waiting for mine to be sent.
Don't have any issues with drilling my hood.
Hints:
Use a variable speed drill.
Always use a proper sharp metal drill, use a small size to do a pilot hole and then increment the drilll size each time until the right size hole is acheived.
Just be patient and methodical.
