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

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
