hi all cant find a defo answer here so here goes desperate to install my type r spoiler original one onto my 5 door now ive read the 2 plexi bolts are removed then i need to drill the holes through the plexi but on the 5 door the bolts are further apart than the nuts on the spoiler if you know were im coming from so i plan on removing the top plexi bolt drill that out then seal the rest on at least it will give me some security it wont fall off again does the top hole line up with one of the nuts in the spoiler hope this makes sense

Pritt stick or pva glue applied sparingly with the tiny plastic spatulas is tick by my word

Genuinely ive heard a few bonding it with just tiger seal
