i used Betalink when i installed my carbon fiber 3d rear spoiler just because i didn't want to deal with the 3m or gorilla tape not holding. it's sorta like an epoxy i guess?

I am talking about the roof spoiler, not the trunk spoiler. It is glued to the window, not the paint. So you should be fine. I can send a pic if you'd like.

For the trunk I only used tape. The roof spoiler only has two points of contact, the trunk lid has a huge contact patch so it's fine with tape IMO.

AH! you have a contact patch across the whole window. I'd do that too... Mine only has a 2 contact points. I'll post a pic later.

Here is mine, only two contact points. That is why I used the silicone.

Yea I got pretty much full contact so the tape is holding up strong so far. That being said I've only driven it a few times being that we're in a SIP.

i believe that's the Hamann style roof spoiler and that's why there's only two points of contact. i really like that design and almost went with that

I decided to nix the roof and trunk spoiler. If anyone is local to Bay Area California I'll gladly hand off for a nominal fee.
