grill delete is the easiest mod, just remember to reuse the screws on the bottom of the stock grill.

getting to the 4 screws on the bottom of the stock grill is a PITA. The chin spoiler definitley use screws or bolts, First time i barely hit a curb with mine it popped 5 of the push pins int the middle and the front of it sagged down.

ive been told the grill delete isnt that bad to put in but the chin spoiler def good if you have an extra pair of hands. and def go with the bolts, mines bolted in and ive smacked it a good couple of times and its still holdin up strong.

for the grill delete you might need anti torx screws. and use them again so no one steals your pony

and on the spoiler use bolts and wing nuts so it doesn't go anywhere

and yes a 2nd pair of hands helps

I bought the Mach 1 chin spoiler for my car, ditto on what these guys said about not using the plastic screws, get some stainless steel nuts and bolts.

I drilled extra holes under the car for the bolts. When lining up the spoiler to the car, get someone to help you and then tape it in place using masking tape.
