Kzang, did you use adhesive in addition to the bracket and the screws? Reason I ask is dealer telling me they are charging $200 for adhesive for the splitter and diffuser.
Sounds like bs to me. Even they use adhesive in addition to screws, how much can adhesive cost? $20?

The adhesives are indeed needed for proper install. However, on the front splitter I did the install myself with a 3M VHB tape and screws.
I had the diffuser installed with the beta link adhesive though from the dealer.

I was planning on skipping the Splitter on a new F16 I ordered (not arrived yet) and unfortunately your front pics (with the red strip) convinced me to shell out the dosh to have them fitted prior to delivery....

I just wanted to say thanks for making me do that....

I'm painting my front tow-hook cover right now, actually. Final clear coats going on.
