Euroteck e63 Diffuser install suggestions

Did my fair share of searching

Bought this euroteck diffuser used from a member on here, but unfortunately, the screws that were attached to the diffuser to secure the install along with 3M tape aren't there anymore lol

What do yall suggest is the best way to install this diffuser on my car now?

All help is greatly appreciated and thanks in advance!

You can get 3m tape and just drill hole into the underside and get a black bolt so that it doesn't show as much.

Some 3M Tape and 2 black Flush mount screws should be fine. Make sure you prep both surfaces first with mineral spirits, Dry them and heat the backside of the diffuser then install the 3M tape to the back of the diffuser. Heat the Front side of the 3M tape slightly to make it tacky and slowly line up on your bumper and stick!

I would not feel secure to have my diffuser on with just 3M adhesive....
Definitely get some bolts or screws setup

Liquid nails, and mounting hardware will secure the diffuser.
You may have to epoxy bolts on the diffuser from where they were broken off, if you don't do this no matter how much adhesive you put on the ends it will start coming off.
If you knew the bolts were broken before buying it then it is you head ache to fix it, but if you didnot then you should contact the seller

Along with the screws that came attach to the diffuser I apoxy 3 bolts more along with the 3m tape fits well with no gaps.

That's it ! I used the Gorilla Glue on the ends where the screws were. Then, I used plastic clamps to hold them snug until the glue dried. So far, it has held up very well.

When we install the piece we epoxy the two screws on the end as well as three screws in the center along with double sided tape, it is not going anywhere!
