The V4 should go straight on using the existing holes mate. When taking the old one off once you've got the bolts off, use a hairdryer just to gently heat any glue that may also be holding the spoiler in place, this should make it peel off very easily. Good luck mate :thumb:

I'm going the other way :) - replacing the v4 spoiler on my MY95 with a BMW (cough) 3 series coupe M spoiler. Hoping the V4 comes off easily enough!

going back a bit when i took off my high level (std on MY99) but IIRC there 2 bolts each side (one under the rubber stopper) take these off and all that's left holding it on is a plastic fixing at the front edge.

this is like a plastic pin with a ball on the end so it takes a bit of effort to pop it out, no glue just a rubber gasket under the feet of the spoiler so it doesn't mark the boot.

direct swap, 10 mins tops:)
