No problemo
What the pic of the clip doesn't show is that there is a groove in the raised part that goes onto the tail gate!

So would you fit it by cliping it to the tailgate then bolting it to the spoiler?

As Lamb chops said mate you just fit the clips onto the bootlid and then screw them to the spoiler
Fix the spoiler down with good quality body moulding tape first though!
Just as an aside i once sold a pair of those plastic clips and the caps for 80 quid
