Rexpeed Rear Corner Extension Install

Anyone have experience or have installed these on a 2011 GSR??? I just picked mine up from the post office today, and it doesn't seem like they will work. The bottom of these pieces have holes for the bolts that came with it, i bought these thinking they would mount easy, now I look at it and it looks like they want you to drill holes in the bumper.

For those who are going to waste posts with saying rexpeed is crap, don't waste your time. I have read almost every thread in this forum and everyone says something bad about them. We all are looking to save money and the prices were good. However if they are not going to work I will be sending them back.

Pics if possible.

Thanks all

Yea it does require you to drill. Does anyone know how the ones from mitsubishi fit? Those of you with the kit, can you let me know how they are installed?

i installed my rexpeed corners with 3m tape and 2 screws on the bottom.

i am pretty sure the screws end up going in to the diffuser.

Corner extensions are avilablefrom Mitsubishi as an accessory for the 2012 and they look like the will fit other but must drill holes with 3m tape also.

go to Lowe's, but some of these:

same type of wellnut used to hold the front plate on. Will work well for you.

I'd recommend spraying some extra clear coat on those Rexpeeds. They're junk.
