ANY CAR - How to fit a 'no drill' rear spoiler 

For the ones asking about the best tape to use, I've done some very thorough reserach and this is what I've found. (Of course there are many brands and models of tape, but this is my finding that most original equipment manufacturers are using) 3M VHB 5952 Or 5956 Both are available in 12,7 or 19mm width. 5952 is 1,1mm thick 5956 is 1.5mm thick. The thinner tape works great for brand original accessories and gives a near invisible seam. Thicker is good for 3rd party accessories where fitment sometimes can be less than absolutely perfect and the thicker tape fills the gap so to speak.

Nice! And I agree, no need to drill for these smaller spoilers

Nice, straightforward and to the point 👍

Dont fancy a big GT wing . I saw a M3 the other day with a massive high wing. Looks good tho your wing,That 3M tape is pretty strong stuff

Man that car sounds awesome 😳

Its 7 degrees outside, I'll wait lol

Another good way is to use a smudge of tiger seal on the ends and the middle of the spoiler as well as 3m tape to ensure it really sticks 👍

There's a video by project something and he tests different double sided tape. He's also very unbiased.

It's not for esthetic only. It applies down force on your car when you drive faster and it gives you better handling and stability at high speeds. I felt the difference after i installed mine.

So helpful! Thank you!

thanks mate

I ordered my spoiler and so eager to do this. BUT How about the 3M tape? Your video guide should defo mention the exact type, width and thickness e.g. 10mm 0.8mm. Or 1.1mm thick. What tape NOT to use etc Don't want spoiler raised off the lip

I recognise that M40BTG from the M3 group on Facebook haha

I found the 3m too thick and I can see the gap between the spoiler and boot with the tape in-between. How can I avoid this?

Great video! Short and to the point. How long does the 3M tape need to fully cure?

Does anyone think ceramic coating before install is a bad idea? Or even just polishing before install?

The spoiler on my x type is curved so I quess tape maybe wouldn’t be practical to use?

Should of given it a quick heat before installing?

What about lip? Don’t want to drill my front bumper

Would blu-tack work?

should it still wiggle some after applying adhesive tape or should there be no margin of movement after securing it?

any particular tape please?

Ok i have a question. What if i want to stick it down with something stronger than double sided tape, worried someone will steal it off ! Thinking some strong glue or something ? Don’t want to screw it as that’s crazy Any ideas ??? Great vid

Hi, great video thanks, would you advise the exact 3m tape used please, or am I being stupid and have missed it somewhere. And, I have seen another video to assist final locating by using tape to allow the spoiler to be folded backwards...

Btw did u even degrease the boot before applying the spoiler? Also what 3m tape did u use here? 3m automotive molding tape? Pls a reply would help so much

Very good video, I just received by carbon fiber rear spoiler with the 3M tape for my Alfa Romeo Giulia, I still have to install it. My question is ...after installation will the 3M tape be sufficient to hold it down even after multiple car washes? Just worried that one day it will rip off while driving down the highway. Thank you

Does this harm the original paint on the car once you apply the spoiler with the 3m tape? Like, can I take it of in a year or two and the car be ok?

Will it wear off if the temperature is too high outside? Glue often get loosen so

what about daily cleaning with water on that spoiler it won't remove it ?

how can it be remove? Appliying heat too?

Nice, where can I buy the 3M tape ?

I did this around 42f degree, and I used a hair dryer, will this be ok?

ayo can i put this spoiler on a 328i sedan or wassup?

Have u got a link for the exact tape you used please

Would a strong pull take that off?

Like

will it hold in a carwash?

What would you suggest to prep the paint first? Is alcohol enough? (Just ordered a Maxton spoiler for my MK& GTI)

They don't have my type of car :/

Where to buy pls?

You ever heard of Tee Tree oil? Go buy some and put it on your arms daily about a week after you shower. It will clear up. Just looking out.

Damn bro. That eczema.

How is it holding up?

So sick of RU-vid ads, so spammy

...if there are no ground effects then why bother putting a spoiler on a car? You're better off saving on the excess weight and applying "no fog" to the inside of your wind shield so it doesn't fog up as much.

The voice over does not match the guy temperament at all. I guess it's synthesized voice.
