My technique was to wait until it had rained really hard then got the girlfriend to help me whilst having a massive argument and the dog going nuts.
Worked out perfectly.
You can borrow her and the dog if you'd like?

Jacked the car up and used Self tappers, had a pal work ahead of me and hold the splitter in position whilst I drove self tappers in. Used about 15/16 tappers lol.
Didn't even need to take the bumper off, sits flush

If doing it on your own....put the selftappers in the spoiler first.....it's awkward trying to hold everything in place

You can use the tabs on the splitter make it project evenly along the bottom of the bumper, or at least that's what I did and it worked nicely! Find and mark the centres of both the splitter and the bumper too - it'll help you align them more accurately relative to the nearside and offside of the car.

+1, also start from the centre and work your way around to the edges, dont cut the ends off until its fitted, i made this mistake and it was a few mm short at each end which bugged me to smithereens!
Done mine earlier, on a downward facing drive, couldn't get a cordless under so I used one of those snakey type drill extension thingamajigs and it's all over the place. Some parts stick out a mm here and there. Going to redo it at some point before I rip it off. I'm a bit ocd like that.
