carbon fiber

hey i know this might sound like a stupid question but i was wondering, how do u install a one piece carbon fiber splitter with adjustbale stabilizer rods?

[FRpilot]

whats a stabalizer rod? im assuming you just drill holes and bolt them on. or as jspec says with most of their bumpers and body parts, 'should fit on with self taping screws and double sided tapes'

thats what i was thinking as well but the carbon fiber splitter didnt come with bolts and isnt predrilled, ive never drilled carbon fiber before ill see what i can do

carbon fiber drills and cuts just like aluminum or plastic or any other material. i've got a big pile of resin-coated scraps that i'm playing around with.... so far i've made doorsills, custom 6x9 speaker mounts that cover my rear seat armrests (my hatch is now a 2 seater), and a shift boot for my friend's '98 Celica GT... he's got a short throw shifter, so i just took a big sheet and cut a half-dollar size hole in the right spot, covered the whole area the boot used to be. then we took another sheet that fit perfectly around the shifter, and it slides underneath the top sheet. very cool piece. i might try it on my car once i get my shortthrow...

but i digress. drilling carbon fiber is as easy as anything else.
