Ah yes, Uni-bit FTW.
Drilling holes is not the hard part, getting it straight is. Just take your time. Maybe make some kind of cardboard template of the spoiler mount so you can see exactly where the holes will be This post has been edited by VavAlephVav: Sep 15, 2014 - 4:05 PM -------------------- Bust a Deal; Face the Wheel.

hatchback is a bit easier as you can somewhat use the markings and holes in the hatch to help you know where the screws go.

Side note, be sure to put some masking tape where you plan to drill the holes to reduce the chance of cracking the paint.
