Did the spoiler just attach with adhesive or is it fixed using bolts (as per the Volvo original)?

Thanks.
No problem

The quality pretty good for a non genuine item.

With regards to fitting, the spoiler has the screw holes ready to go, then the bolts to hold it in place. They do recommend to use adhesive, but it seems a tight fit, and thread locked on. It made me quite nervous having to drill the holes in the boot though! They seemed well marked out by Volvo which was good.

Thanks James. Sounds just like how the Volvo part fits. You have to drill the boot for that too. Will get one ordered.
