Wax the spoiler? How often should I do that to keep it from yellowing?

Btw, it's installed and fits GREAT! I am very pleased with the quality of the spoiler and it's fitment. Pics to follow shortly

^ 1er coupe, what did you use to hold down the c/f spoiler? 3M automotive double sided tape?

I used an entire roll of 3m outdoor mounting tape.... The advert says one square inch is good for 1 pound. I went on a run today and was at 90-110 more than a couple of times and cruising on fwy at 90 for a long period of time... Hasn't moved, lifted, anything.

No I used something like windscreen sealant...it's bonded down completely solid.

The spoiler wants to rise at the edges, so tape will eventually fail. Also, anybody could just steal your spoiler if you use tape.

You need to bond and clamp overnight for the best fit.
