I assume yours will have to be more stout than most since it will plow snow periodically.

It's mounted to a vinyl siding trim piece called sill trim or undersill. That trim piece is screwed to the bumper in about 6 places. I'm considering removing the air dam later in winter as ruts develop in the back lane. It's pretty easy by then to bottom out the car belly unless you straddle the icy ruts. Being icy you can slide back into them in unguarded moments.

Sorry, I grew up here and everyone has a block heater here. People parking on the street not plugged in during our cold winters often need a boost. I should have realized that people from all climates would be on ecomodder. We get periods of time in the winter where the day time high can be -30C or -22F and sometimes -40C or -40F. Then comes the windchill...
−20.2C or−4.4F is our winter average. Summers rock.
