Splitter install, no underside screw holes - E90

got a set of splitters. there are no screw holes on the bottom.

anyone have an idea of how i can mark and drill my own screw holes, or you think i can do without the screwing in those screws that are on the underside of the bumper.

Use 3m automotive double-sided adhesive tape (the red one). Or you can you Betalink adhesive glue which is what comes with the oem splitters.

I will be using 3m double side tape to install, but the bottom side, you will need to remove the screws for proper install, not sure how to screw them back in property.

remove the splash gaurds in the wheel well so you can get to the holes from the inside to mark the underside of the splitter and drill holes on your mark. i believe you only need to drill one hole for each side. on the part of the splitter closest to the outside of the car not the kidney grill
