Need advice for Trunk spoiler install

I received a painted spoiler today but I am not sure how to do it.
I did not know I would receive it with E6000 industrial adhesive.
Actually I am not sure how to use this adhesive(glue). Here is what I am thinking now. Please help..

3 options,

1. try myself to use E6000 Industrial adhesive for installation
2. buy 3M double side tape and try installation
3. go to bodyshop.... (any idea how much do they charge for this labor?)

Any recommendation will be appreciated!!

A body shop gluing it on will cost what $25? They might even do it for free so you'll come back if you have a more serious repair. Also, if it gets torn off while driving you have someone else to blame.
