DIY installation of genuine factory rear spoiler....

First of all, awesome write-up! Has anybody ever dropped a screw while trying to screw on the spoiler? What to do now it's stuck inside the trunk.

Yep, I did this too. I purchased a magnetic pickup tool from O'Reilly's. It only took three attempts to fish out the nut.

Thanks for the DIY, simota1. I referred to this thread a few times during the install.
