Mach 1 Chin Spoiler...


Got mine today...just a quick installation question from people that have them... should I use the hardware it came with? is it strong enough? OR should I just grab some screws from the shed and screw it into the bumper? or i have screws with ribbed plastic anchors... just wana know if the hardware it came with is good enough.
