I have a few parts being wrapped and will need to reinstall them to my car - the performance pack spoiler being my main concern. Is the 3M VHB tape I'm seeing on Az the right product for this? There were some small pieces of tape on the mirror covers and hood vents, too, but I don't think those are as critical.

3M VHB is as good as it gets.
McMaster has a good break down of 3M VHB by width and thickness.

Adhesion promoter is a must. Make sure you dry fit the spoiler before you send it home.

There are different types of 3M VHB. The one you want for spoiler attachment is 3M VHB part# 5952. The adhesive portion is black. Don't use the grey version, it's not as strong. As mentioned, the adhesion promotor is an absolute must.

A bit late with a response, but Ford Accessories provides 3M #540 polyurethane adhesive sealant with the quarter window and quarter panel, and hood scoops. I have the hood and quarter panel scoops and they are holding up pretty well about 3 years after having installed them.
