Race Car
you can drill holes through the bottom and put screws into the holes and through the top lip and into the speed nuts on the bumper cover. makes taking the splitter off and back on pretty easy.
but you way looks a lot cleaner from underneath the car

OriginalSterm - I see.. sounds like a trick way, too bad I didn't even think of that when I was installing it..! Oh well, hopefully I won't have to take it off anytime soon
Eivind - Yep, I did all the prep/paint work myself, which unfortunately shows... the paint is some off-the-shelf satin black. I would have bought one from Sanden, but apparently he doesn't like to ship fiberglass items out of the country; this one is in fact a self-made replica.
Thanks for the positive comments everybody!

Looks great. It's tough to improve that car of yours but that did it.
You may want to do the mounting method with the holes. I've had to remove mine 3 or 4 times to do a few maintenance jobs like draining coolant, replacing accessory belts, etc. It makes it much easier to remove and replace. I just had mine off tonight to remove the alternator so I could install a new voltage regulator. It had to come off to remove the alt/ac belt.
