The center piece goes right on the same factory holes with the 3M tape.
The side pieces have 3 holes that rest on the top of your quarter panel and one at the tip, in the middle of your quarter.
I think Roush screwed up, they should have made provisions for 2 more holes!

If you gonna drill, just do 2 on top and shave the stud (cut off wheel and grind down) located at the pointy part. More than enough[8D]. I myself never drill for those, and I ctach a lot of Cr@p from people here.
Ihave yet to see a customer with one missing side piece. Kuddo with different spoilers.

Ilike the Roush but can't get happy about the asymetrical gapsbetween the trunk deck part and the two outer parts. Maybe it's poor installation, but that just makes it look "Chinese Knockoff"

Just ordered myself a Torch Red GT500 from the spoiler store for $130 painted/shipped. Not too shabby.

I'm under the understanding that it will install just fine with the holes from my 07' V6. Anyone want to confirm this?

One side will have a slight offset Marcus, since the center piece is not perfect, like I already mentioned.
The plastic material is hard on those spoilers, it doesn't give,so even the 3Mtape can't correct for this.

I like the 08 6 cyl wing its used on the KR and is pretty discreet and kinda matches the lower splitter with aero dips

Good choice with the CDC Classic chin Trey. I say go with the GT500. I could never get myself to drill that many holes in my car..
