I'd recommend bolting, or not putting it on. Taped on will not hold, from the lift I see on mine...

I have a scoop on an Escape I installed with tape only. It's been on more than a year with no problem. Also, many of the quarter window scoops, if not all, install with tape only.

True, but louvers don't have the same "air-dam" effect that scoops do (acute angle into the windstream).

Can't speak for any other scoop type, but the Roush lifts at speed. Do as you will...
