I don't know the height but I would recommend marking it out and drilling the proper pilot holes for the screws you are using and then installing the screws and spoiler with a SCREWDRIVER so you don't either strip the metal out and not hold it tight, or get it too tight and crack the spoiler.89 Festiva L Carby 4 Speed...

This is what I did and it worked fine. I then filled the holes with that non-hardening window glaze, to prevent water from getting in; then put on the caps. Install it more towards the rear, not the front of the hatch top; otherwise when you open the hatch, the spoiler front edge will contact the roof.Originally posted by Nerd Racing View PostLast edited by TominMO; 11-05-2010, 11:45 AM.90 Festy (Larry)--B6M (Matt D. modified B6 head), header, 5-speed, Capri XR2 front brakes, many other little mods

Ok I did a search and this ancient thread came up. Where do the holes go and has anyone drilled all the way through and used a bolt & nut? Alternatively, has anyone used VHB only?1991 Beastiva L BP autoX'erComment

Junespeed said 3M double sided foam tape would be fine. They are cosmetic. Any downforce is probably VERY minimal.Any difference that makes no difference is no difference.
