Thanks for clarifying this for me, I always thought that polycarbonate, Lexan, and Plexiglass were the same thing and there were just varying degrees of it. From what you've said, I have plexiglass. I was using self-drilling screws along the top, allowing the rotation of the screw to melt the plexi and then go through it and secure it to the OEM spoiler. I cracked it in one small spot, but the crack didn't spread after I secured it.
