HELP! Adding 4.6is spoiler to facelifted X

Hello all,
i recently purchased a set of 4.6is spoilers from MrBMWX5 (Tom). He has been of great help to me as I have been trying to put the spoilers on. Can anyone who has themselves added the FRONT 4.6is spoiler to a FACELIFTED X comment on how they did it? I have found some information in these forums, but the most pertinent information applies to adding the spoiler to pre-facelifted X's. I myself struggled for over an hour trying to attach the front spoiler via 3M windshield adhesive, I found that the blue painters tape I used would not hold the spoiler tight enough against the bumper to allow the adhesive to contact the bumper and cure. Maybe simple solution to try again with stronger tape? I also had to modify the slots in the top of the spoiler to accomodate the vertical slats in the lower bumper grille (very minor job). I'm pretty frustrated right now and am seriously considering taking it to a body shop and having them put it on, or just screwing the spoiler on myself.......

please help if you can!

ps. i guess its worth it just to look at her ass with the .is spoiler. lemans flares, and oem 315 style 87's on 30mm spacers...
