I am not going to lie to you though, it was very difficult drilling holes in my brand new car. I got up at 5:30 in the morning after not being able to sleep knowing it was sitting in the living room waiting for holes to be drilled. My wife said "I am glad I was asleep!" I told her it was about a three hour install. One hour for the actual work and two hours to get over the nausea.

I still owe you guys an DIY write up but I just haven't had time. I will get to it. Subscribe to my spoiler link a few posts below and I will update that with a link when I do.

Congrats and enjoy!!!

It just seems that only 4 bolts can't do a very good job of securing this spoiler to the trunk lid. How are the bolts distributed? One on each of the four "uprights"? Two each on the outers? Two each on the inners?

Are there gaskets on the bottom of the uprights or do they sit directly on the clearcoat of the trunk lid?

The bolts are one each on the 2 uprights and 2 outers. 2 on top of the trunk and 2 on the down slope at the back. It also has 2 sided tape that I will basically be outlining the underside of the wing with. The wing seemed very strong when I test mounted it with the bolts but the tape will add extra security.
