Once bolted into place from the bottom, a gap was created at the top edge which was too wide for the thin 3M tape to bridge. I wanted to be able to remove the spoiler in the future so I resisted more screws. A uniform bead of black 3M windshield urethane worked nicely and could be removed at a later date if needed. My friend at a body shop said they use it all the time for carbon fiber pieces on Porsches.
Hope this helps.
Did you screw in the additional screws it came with??
