Im assuming you have the base? The base wing has corner clips to hold them down.

How do you like the wing? You have pics?

It's cool I have a sport/touring, to get it to sit flush I had to drill the holes on the very end but other than that it looks good.

Sorry I meant the sports wing had the corner clips.

The clips and double tape didn't hold it down? Just wondering because when I placed my wing on just to look the ends didn't really sit perfect either, but after I finally put it down it sat perfect.

The left side stuck up bad, but the right one was good

P.S driving behind frank's car today, it looks pretty damn sick. When your in your car looking at his, the angle that the wing makes with the windshield is awesome when you put it into consideration with the angles of the tail light and bottom valance.

Good job Frank (im following your posts)

So I had my wing installed by a bodyshop last week. The day I picked up my car it was raining and I had just pulled a muscle in my back so I didn't really look at the job all that well. After looking at it for a couple days now I am not pleased with the job they did. It seems that they couldn't get the wing to sit properly at the edges. I wanted them to use tape so that I could go back to stock in the furture. I like to give people a chance so I went back to talk to them today and they told me they would have to drill holes in the end to pull the wing down more. I asked what they would do about the gap and filling it and they told me I should look at Canadian tire or Home Depot for some kind of rubber gasket. I asked what about a thicker black double sided tape and I was told they hadn't ever seen any.
Did you guys who put yours on yourself have the wing sit flusher than this?
I am thinking I may just do this myself because I don't have a lot of confidence in this shop anymore.

It looks excellent in my opinion. This is the only picture crappy phone pic I have now. I will get some better pics when my back feels a little better and I can put my summer wheels back on.

So does anyone have any detailed pics on how they did this

I got it off and all that but as far and the new holes you drilled out in the duck bill

I have no pics of the install. I had no wing.. so it was just template it out , pray, and drill.

The wing (paired w my exhaust) make the back end of this car so much more aggressive and just awesome..
