Default had my rear spoiler installed today

So my spoiler I ordered last month finally got painted and sent to the dealer for my install. I guess Black Cherry was not stocked in the pre-painted inventory from Nissan so it took about 6 weeks. Anyways I love the added style that the sport spoiler has and the paint match is good also.

Looks good. They just look ....naked... without a spoiler on them. Or like something was left off.

I used an oil filter strap wrench with my large ratchet and a set of large vise grips to hold the shifter. Unscrewed pretty easily,

Thanks for asking and offering. I haven't attempted it yet as I am enjoying Easter Sunday with the family. I will try again real soon as the new TK Hebi Bebi arrives tomorrow.
