kit -screwed or taped?

Post by 2-Flush »

Hey guys this is my first time in a discussion forum so hopefully I do this right. Does anyone know how the vibe bodykit that pontiac sells is attached to the car? Is it screwed in or is it attached with 2 sided tape? I saw one a few weeks ago with the kit on and I was really disappointed. Seemed like it didn't fit very well (typical gm quality) and I saw tape already seperating from the kit and body. I was thinking it was a poor install job, but if it's just taped on I think I'll pass. Also - would the spoilers be drilled into the car and could this lead to leaks? Thanks in advance to anyone who replies.

Thanks in advance to anyone who replies.As per the instructions I received with my midgate spoiler it is drilled into the rear hatch with 4 screws, but if installed properly, has a seal that surrounds those 4 screws so there should be no possibility for leaks. As for the top spoiler, I do not have one and am not sure. Same with the GM bodykit. I know some folks on here have that, so someone should be able to help there, but I should think it is bolted on using pre-existing bolts.
