Valence/Diffuser Fastening
Hey team,

Before I go into the visual revamp of my thing I figured I'd reach out to see if anyone has tips on best hardware and methods for attaching the front bumper valence and the rear diffuser.
I'll do some extra homework on YouTube and such, but I've seen a number of you running around with tricked out bumpers so asking here first.

Thanks!

3M double sided tape and self tapping screws are holding my front lip on. The rear diffuser will be held on the same way when it eventually shows up.
