GSR wing on MR touring

I understand this has to be drilled in, but is it possible to secure it on with just a lot of 3M double sided? Even if it's a pre-painted or CF GSR style wing? Doesnt have to be OEM.

I really don't want to drill, especially if I sell the car as stock. Or, is it possible to drill holes just where the OEM duck lid spoiler was, so if I ever put it back to stock it would cover it up?

Thanks!

If I were you I would use Velcro. That way you can detach it easier when you done with the wing for the day. Easy to install and inexpensive. A guy I met at the local meets used it on his integra with a type r wing. He would just pry it off at night and place it back during the day to avoid attention. Use nylon velcro or the plastic velcro used on the toll devices. Yep.

pick up another trunk the same color and drill holes for the wing. that way if you wanted to sell the car as stock you can just swap the trunk.

I had a 2010 SE and had them put the tall spoiler in my deal.....ended up leaving it off for the most part. I had no problem selling it with both spoilers installed.
