OEM Factory Spoiler

joeyz10 · 03-18-2009, 11:05 PM

I ordered the aerodynamic package on my 370z and the dealer called and said it has arrived. I like to know if anyone knows or have an idea on how this is installed? Do they need to drill holes or are they just sticking this spoiler with some 3m adhesive?

I wouldn't drill if you don't have to,i would say just 3M should be cool

The tape alone will not suffice for holding this spoiler in place, at least not for long as it is goes boomeranging into the air at high-speeds only to fall to earth in the Highway Patrol's front windshield.

Your kit should come with factory instructions. Can you please scan them and have AK post them in his section for DIYers? Thanks.

Quite right - you need more than tape. Holes will be needed.

1. Rear Spoiler Assembly
2. Rear Spoiler Spacer
3. Grommet
4. Double-faced Adhesive Tape

"When installing rear spoiler, check that clips and bolts are securely fitted in back door panel holes, and then press them in. Never wash the vehicle within 24 hours after installing so as to keep adhesive."
