So they came in yesterday and used the same adhesive glue I used for my CF acs rear spoiler. I did't put too much as I didn't want it to start dripping out of the sides. I also used blue painters tape to hold the cover in place as they just slid over the back original cover. A real easy mod that took about 20min and $90 for the covers from 4caroption on ebay.

Here are the pictures...
