EVO-R Nismo High Wing fitment question

Thuegel1 · 07-15-2013, 07:11 AM

Thanks! The struts seem to be ok with holding it up, the only thing that I noticed was the initial opening of the trunk. After hitting the button, the hatch does quite open enough to actually open it, but simply pulling up right after it unlocks seem to fix it. If anyone knows what to do about that I would love to know. Yeah I use the epoxy on the center pillar of the wing, however not sure if it will really hold or not, we shall see with time. I looked over the factory nismo spoiler and that one has bolts that hold that together. The only thing that was a pain was that the fishing line broke anytime I hit one of the factory clips. There are seven of those and really the only pain in the whole process.

You can add 2-3 penny's or washers to the hatch springs to help hatch open up. Or add a rubber bump stop to bottom of hatch where spring hits.

Did you end up cutting through those factory clips with the fishing line or did you have to unclip them when the fishing line broke?

I actually fed the fishing line around the first two and the rest just started to pop out. There are seven of them total. I might try the penny thing just figured there was some sort of factory fix for the standard nismo wing which weighs about the same.
