Noticed some smudging behind the 3 dials on the dash. Well one of them. Ocd...

I'm having some issues with the two top bolts. This is as good as it's going to get for now.

old guy · 09-23-2018, 05:59 PM

Are you going to use some sealant after you resolve the 2 bolt issue?

In addition to the gasket that goes around the mounting perimeter of the spoiler self, I'm going to put a nice thick ring of silicone around each hole. I figured that will serve dual purposes of sealing the holes and also acting like an adhesive for a little extra something something.

BoneZ · 09-23-2018, 06:13 PM

But we have rain coming in all this week so I just pulled the spoiler off and put gaffers tape over the holes.

BoneZ · 09-23-2018, 06:14 PM

It'll look stupid for a while but what else can I do?

old guy · 09-24-2018, 09:14 AM

If you had to drill anything take some touch up paint and cover the raw metal also, just a little added insurance

It's aluminum though, isn't it?

I use cold galvanizing paint on the bare surface first if the hole is covered.

I got all my gauges plus the Greddy Profec installed today. I'm not sure if I'll keep the EBC there though.

Do I need to get you some fuzzy dice to hang from the mirror to go
with that carpeted dash? If so, they are on me.

Please do, but won't your mirror look bare then.

Watching youtube videos to learn before attempting install of back up camera with no skills. Luckily it is wireless so, all I have to do is install on license plate, remove rear cargo panels to get access to run cable into the car and figure out how to tap into the wires.
