Is this possible or are the extra holes going to be exposed?

How strong is the tape? Seems pretty strong.

Yes, you will have 2 pretty big holes (19mm if I remember correctly) exposed if you pull the OEM spoiler off. Key word, OEM ... I don't think any of the "OEM Like" ones drill holes. If installed correctly, the tape is very strong.

Not sure why you even want to do this ... While most people wish the OEM spoiler was more agresive, it's preferred hands down over the silly chrome lip.
