Trying to install the RPI Scoop but don't exactly know how it's supposed to mount. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Please post if it is worth it!
Installed it like 10 minutes after reading your replies!
I painted mine white and it looks pretty cool. Not sure if I remember how it drove before to notice any difference? I guess on the freeway it feels like my acceleration is faster and more smoother. Only way to find out for sure is go up against the same car stock. Anyone in vegas? lol
As for pics I will post pics of everything once it's all done.
Will have:
Quads, M5 Bumper, RD Sport Trunk Lip, ACS Roof Spoiler, Trunk Finisher, Blue Carbon Fiber Emblems, Rpi Scoop, H&R Sport Springs, Carbon Interior Trim.
I'm a little less than half way done.
