Re: Just installed OEM wing

its just stuck or glued to it. make sure the holes will line up if you bought it off ebay. some ebay wings the bolts are about a half inch closer together

Thanks for the answer. It is stuck or glued I saw it, just as you described it (its kind of black and spongy) , but I was thinking that I needed more gaskets or something.
I will make sure to check that the holes will line up

Re: Just installed OEM wing

How easy is it to install the spoiler and is there a way to use both the 3rd brake light that sits along the back window AND the spoiler light?

Is the harness needed for this? Where can get it if dont have it?

This guys spoiler is already on the trunk and the truck is off the car. So if its gonna be a lot easier and quicker to just swap the trunks then ill buy the trunk too.

Re: Just installed OEM wing

if you buy the spoiler from Ebay, don't drill at the marks inside the trunk, those ebay spoilers are off by 1/2 an inch or so even if the add says they are OEM style; happened to me and i had to drill two extra holes, luckily the spoiler covered the extra holes completely and with some silicon at the edges, no leaks or anything; i have attached a pic of my spoiler, they look good on the coupes, there is another file with installation instrutions, it is pretty easy

I decided its not worth it to me, AM spoilers on ebay painted are $200 to canada.

Re: Just installed OEM wing

Hi everyone,

My spoiler wing has been sitting in my garage for a few months, and finally I decided to install it. Mine is an OEM spoiler wing.

Does anyone has the template to drill the holes?

Thanks

Re: Just installed OEM wing

If you open your trunk and look there should be some dimples where the bolts will go. Just carefully drill them. After install be careful when closing your trunk. I installed a spoiler on mine and seeing it didnt come factory the springs are not as stiff and it will slam on you.
