No such thing as far as I know. There may be something simliar to the Roush.

The wing is 3 pieces, the center piece is simple as uses the same holes, the side pieces have 3-4 holes that need to be drilled.

Simon1 is correct. Actually the center piece I just got required 4 holes, two of them will already existed with the GTFord spoiler. Not sure on the other spoiler type holes. The side wing templates worked pretty good IF you line it up correctly on the crease of the fender. The center template was a little off which required me to ream the two holes I had to drill.

A lot of people will order the regular roush wing (where you have to drill holes in the side) and just install it with the 3M double sided tape. This might be what you are thinking about regarding not drilling extra holes. The people that have done this say that they haven't had any troubles with the sides falling off but I had mine drilled when my Roush spoiler was installed. I don't ever plan on removing it though. If that had been a factor I may have leaned towards trying to do it without drilling extra holes. Hope this helps.

i'm thinking, if side scoops are held on with 3m tape (i don't think they're bolted on), and they aren't aerodynamic (the point of them being to scoop up air) then taping the side pieces of this spoiler shouldn't be problematic.

Just use 3M tape on the 2 side pieces. That's what i'm going to do when I install mine.

ballistic and boochy... you two have the right idea.
Don't drill holes to hold downa piece of plastic that weights a 10th of a pound andwon't even create any drag.
3M tape damn it.
