I used 3M tape for the bracket because i didnt want to drill the bumper either. I also took thin wire and ran it back to the tow hook just as a back up and to make it not rattle. It has been on there over a year and no problems of it comming loose.

I use self tapping screws. If you want a secure hold, then your going to have to drill a hole. Just take your time so you dont have several holes due to misalignment. Good luck!

1.) The tow hooks do not have to come off, there is a black plastic cover around the tow hooks that i had to take off.

2.) The LED puddle lights I purchased from http://www.superbrightleds.com/mini-wedge.html WLED-WHP. I used a small screw driver to remove the cover and insert the 194 WLED-WHD buld in the OEM socket.

3.) Yes i have the LTZ with Air Ride
4.) The Borla produces a nice royal luxury rumble at idle and a mean growl under acceleration. Im a Borla fan. Corsa is good also. No CABIN DRONE. Thats why i went with Borla vs other brands!
