Thanks TJR,

As for the drilling, it would have been way harder to line it up without the indentions on the inside for the first two, once those are drilled its just fit, mark and drill two more times. Not as bad I thought it would be.

 

looks good but id be so scared to drill into my trunk

 

Nice install write-up. One word of caution that I've always heard is removing the metal filing residue from the holes. First instinct is to wipe them off but that could result in serious scratches. I've heard using magnets, water and compressed air.

 

im looking into getting one too, but im too chicken to drill my own trunk

 

I just ordered from handa-accessories.com because they ship quickly. Spent a little more than the cheapest I could find, which was around $330, but I'm impatient. Looks like I'll have it Monday, so that's when I'll install it. The OEM front lip was the other factory mod I did, which I also purchased from handaaccessories.com.

 

Thanks A lot for the info

 

Has anyone used adhesive / tape to install the spoiler?

 

adhesive tape will hold the spoiler fine.


i only drilled the outer two holes and had no problems for 2 years. i recently sold my ap1 spoiler and got a ap2 wing and used the same two holes and put tape under the front two holes. holds just fine!!

 

what "springs" are you guys talking about and what do they do?


also, what are the differences between the ap1 and ap2 trunk spoiler?

 

you can get the same spoiler on ebay for pretty much 150 and they come painted in factory color i believe. Heard/read the fitment on them are great also.
