for those of you who have installed the cdc classic chin spoiler, did you just attach it with the double sided tape that came on it? i was at a bodyshop today, to find out about getting it installed, and they said it would be better to use some kind of epoxy. has anyone gone like 150+ with one of these installed? i dont want this thing to come flying off, because i do drive fast once in a while!

I wouldn't use epoxy. With 4 screws, the double sided tape, and the 2 plugs on the bottom, you'll be fine. I've been well over 100 mph several times and haven't had any trouble. With epoxy, if you ever have to take the spoiler off.....you're screwed.

My cousin's an engineer at CDC..every part they've got they test out to the max. They wouldn't put something out on market without 100% making sure it works per it's full specs and installment.

Assuming its the same type of tape, the instructions that came with the Silverhorse rear panel said make sure its in the 60-80 degree temp range
