wing install?
I called Nissan to install a sport wing and the labor is $280. Is it almost a 3 hr job? Does that sound fair?

wow... place template, drill a few holes, mounting tape, tighten screws.
maybe one hr? :confused: |
Yea, or if you're not sure of yourself or don't have a drill, some random body shop could charge about $100 for the install.
|
I had a local autocrafters do mine and it was about $110 total and they did a great job.
|
You don't even need a template. All you need is to drill four holes plus tape not all 12 or so.
|
Update: went to 4 shops.#1 Autocrafters changed names on phillips hwy and the kid was not too confident about all the holes. #2 Prostar said the screws are different and doesn't know what size hole since it is not round(buy hatch w/spoiler. #3 mandarin collision said $200 and he will just bolt the 4 screws,cut off the 8 odd shape snaps and 3m tape it so it will hold but they are too busy now. #4 Honda stealership sub- lets their body work out. Going to try OrangePark on the cheaper side of town. Anybody local know how to work on Nissans?

I am in Jacksonville about 400 miles north of you. I have been as far as 10 thousand islands down there on the westside,it is very nice.

Ok that's a long drive! Do you have any race/performance shops near you, I know mine does wing installs so the spoiler should be no big deal.

Thanks for the race shop idea that thinking out of the box. I was just thinking bodyshops. Side note you could get lost in those islands but there were plenty of bonefish to keep you occupied

My experience said that rusk will destroy everything. be calm, park your car in garage and slowly drill any holes, from small to big People at all body shop just want to finish their job as soon as possible and get away |
Update- A friend from church who has been doing bodywork for yrs is going to take a look at it on Sun. He is going to use some roller at work to take of the 3m sticky stuff and says it should be secured good with just using the 4 bolts and tape. He is going to start drilling small holes first. Keeping the faith.

yep line up the wing and use those plastic straps that you push into the screw hole then put the wing where you want it, tape the straps down and pop off the wing. Then you have your template.
Measure 10x drill once. |
