I just finally got around to getting my duckbill spoiler installed on my car and let me tell you how much of a pain it was to actually do this myself. The worse part of this install was trying to remove the old spoiler double sided tape from the car. It took me a couple of weeks to get through this install as I have 2 kids under 2 years old, so that means I get to spend about 2 hours a week on it nightly.
I started with taking off my old spoiler. Worst part of the entire process up front. I already had a sport spoiler so I was going to use the original holes similar to a DIY thread on here for the duckbill. I followed this thread as my guide, but did deviate a bit on some pieces. DIY AERO JACKET III Wing install (short version) for KaienZ34 ![]() I then put some zip ties down into the holes already in the car with some "duck" tape facing up so it would stick to the spoiler when I fitted it to the car. For the most part the molded lines seem to match up so I could drill holes into the spoiler where the zip tie heads lined up and put the original clips into the spoiler. ![]() I then drilled the holes for the clips and epoxied them in place again similar to the DIY for the duckbill spoiler. ![]() ![]() The last step for me was to put the spoiler on with 3M double sided tape. Here is the final look. I had just added EVO-R side blades as well and over all I am finally happy with the look of my car all around with CF accent on the front lip, blades, rear diffuser and spoiler. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() For comparison here is my car before the blades and spoiler.
