how sturdy is the installation of a body kit?

Now that I've got my drop, my next project is a Stillen kit. However, I have some reservations, since I live in Rochester, NY where it snows a lot and the streets aren't plowed. Basically, my concern is that with my drop (which is fairly low) and a Stillen kit, driving through deep, heavy snow could put pressure on the lip especially. Is it possible for one to become "undone" or loosened off once it's been installed? Could snow do this?

Thanks for any info.

Using rivets for the chin spoiler's connection in the wheel wells and the double sided tape that comes with the kit its pretty strong. Just avoid acting like a snow plow though!

well most ppl use doublesided tape, just use nuts and bolts if you want to take it off again
