Recently bought an OEM spoiler off ebay and going to fit it tomorrow.

It's got the screw holes but they dont match up (plus there's 4 of them)

I came with m3 tape attached and e6000 adhesive.

Any advice?

Going to be done in a warm heated garage, and taped down to secure!

Was this from the states? I'm trying to find an OEM Spoiler but not sure where to get them.

Can't help with the question sorry..

 

Taiwan, on Ebay £103 already painted. I'll tell you what it's like tomorrow!

Should I use the Adhesive supplied or get some sikaflex 221?

 

Sikaflew tape or bonded/silcone'd on.

My local bodyshop did mine 4 years ago and is fine, its never going to come off - which i like.

 

Sikaflex is cracking (but messy) stuff. When I was stuck in the snow over Christmas, my dad helped push me out by (unbeknownst to me) pushing on the spoiler instead of the boot. So it's pretty tough.

 

PS; Adum, if you search in Google for "racing raven ebay", then you'll find their Ebay shop. Their spoilers are a perfect match for OEM, apart from the bolt holes, which you don't need to use.

 

Sh*t to a blanket , don't bother with screws

Let us know how you get on. Maybe post a pic. I was looking at getting a spoiler myself.

 

*potential silly question*

If you use glue, won't it just stick the spoiler to the paint rather than then the metal of the boot.
When I used to make models you;d never glue to paint as paint can come away quite easily.

I know bugger all about the science of car paint, but I have seen paint come off cars - so I'm just wondering about this.
