Looking at this exact spoiler to add a little more character to my new baby. Can't beat the price and like you said it may actually help a bit with aero compared to a factory version, but you're right about the scary part of the process. Still a point of no return but seeing it actually being done puts my mind at ease a bit.
They’re called riv-nuts. Here’s an Amazon link to the tool as an example: WETOLS Rivet Nut Tool, Hand Rivet Nut Tool with 7 Metric & Inch Mandrels M6 M8 M10, 1/4-20, 5/16-18, 3/8-16, 70pcs Rivnuts and Blow Carry Case - WE-882 a.co/d/eVLbNvQ

It wasn’t that bad for sure. Just take your time!
Nice video! I like the brass fitting things that seat in there what are those called? Definitely look more secure than just a rivet.

Rivet nuts or "riv nuts" in my line of work.
Great video. I'm about to install mine. Which rivnut size did you use?
M6
Thanks! What size drill bit did you use?
Oh man I don’t remember that. Just find one that’s slightly larger than the diameter of the rivnut but not bigger than the lip of the rivnut.
Good video but I am NOT putting that wing on my car.
Not a fan of the style or not a fan of drilling holes in your car?
What is the size of bolts you used to screw into your rivet nuts? I ordered the same spoiler and like how you did yours.
M6
