I've never installed one, but I can't imagine that it would be hard. Atlanticblue just installed one, so I figure if he can do it, anyone can, LOL. J/K
Atlatic, can you offer any advise here? [sm=smiley20.gif]

I just had a body shop install mine. They used plastic rivets instead of push clips. Only cost me $40.

heres the deal:

make sure the spoiler has been sitting out of its shipping box for a while so it is the correct shape. place the spoiler where you want it to be and hold it there with some tape (masking tape wouldnt hold mine so i used duct tape after applying it to my t-shirt so it wouldnt be as sticky) you can allign the spoiler with the wheel wells or with the front of the bumper. i alligned it with the front of the bumper lip. now, with the spoiler in place, drill the 17 1/4" holes into the bumper and then there are 2 ways to fasten it: 1) Ford "plastic rivets" or 2) real hardware. i used stainless steel 1" long 1/4" bolts and 2 washers and a nut for the 17 holes. this way, the spoiler wont ever fall off or be stolen. then, step back, enjoy, and most importantly- test drive your baby around town
