here is a template I derived from some pictures of the DPs... this results in an installation which is "approximately" the same as these dimensions... (front is 10mm lower)

I will bring it over, although it looks as though I got the front dimension short by 10mm

Larry, if I send you a 6RSR pic can you calculate the position for a near zero angle of incidence? I am about to install my canards..

Same location/template for the larger dive planes?

You should probably spend some more time on which adhesive to use as I saw one fly off at the track recently

The extremely overpriced OEM ones. They did manage to pick it up, however it was in 13 pieces

Body shop mistake. Customer got a brand new one.
As long as the area is cleaned with alcohol or any adhesive cleaner that doesn't leave residues, it will be fine.

+1 warming the surface of the bumper 1st also helps it adhere...

Why not just bolt these on to the bumper instead?
