Hi, pretty soon I'm going to add a Spoiler to my car. Just wondering if there are any guides or something that will help me get the best possible result.
Or perhaps u could advice me.....I'm just a noob!

Hey! Look At Me!! I'm a Supporting Member!! if you're just a noob then i'd take it to the shop and get it done there.
line the spoiler hole with the trunk, there should be an area on the bottom of the trunk on each side, line them up and drill. after you have aligned everything, screws in, make sure you seal around the screws to prevent leadking.
also, there should be a piece of foam piece that goes in between the spoiler and the trunk, make sure it's there.
if you have led in the spoiler, then i guess you'll have to splice the brake wire and connect them.

Just because a shop says they know how to do body work, doesnt always mean there qualified. Look how far this one body shop missed lining up the spoiler on my car after they replaced my trunk.Originally Posted by bamb00

then they put electrical tape on it to cover up the scatches they made while drilling holes.
And my honda dealer recomended this place.
Heres some instructions that might help though http://handa-accessories.com/civic/02CIVWING.pdf

The manager couldnt under stand why it looked bad, so i had to email him the install instructions so they could fix it, but this wasnt the only thing that they did wrong. I ended up having to take it back 3 more times just so they could fix all there other mess ups.Originally Posted by diskreet

i would meet up with them again... in court yeah I wouldn't trust any shop I had to take my car back again and again for about 6 months after they finished the initial repairs when I had my crash. they most likely dont know anymore then you do how to install it try it yourself.

it stuck out so much i could read where it said civic underneath it.
thnx guys for the links....I see its mainly abt drilling, and drilling at the right place without scratching anything else.
OK so once the hole is drilled, do i need to put some rust paint or something? The guide says put some touch up paint, but it doesn't say which one. Please advice....

so you're saying it's best to do it yourself and risk having to spend even more money to have a shop repair the hole and reinstall the spoiler if you f uck up?
