Spoiler upgrade
below is a picture of the spoiler in which I bought off ebay. stock high rise but has a LED as the third brake light, I think it will be a neat installation. I have to do some rewiring and hope I can post some pictures up about that. I plan on painting the LED light with VHT spray window tint, so it will match my tail light covers, saweet.
below are pictures of the preperation process of putting on the new spoiler, I havne't recieved it yet, but i'm getting the car ready. you have to fill in many of the holes for it, all 3 the the side for shure, and I think the high rise spoilers only have 4 bolts, they're grouped into two's, one behind another, so two bolts are about 4 inches infront/behind the other, while its about 18 inches from the other group. so lots of filling to be done now.
you will open your trunk up to this^
you then can see the caps are taken out of the bolt access holes and the spoiler removed, there are 6 bolts.
the harder one to get to is the side spoilers, as you have to loosen your tail light housings to get 1 of 3 bolts which you only have access too from the outer part of the car(where the tail light housing covers)
the right image is looking up from teh ground underniethe rthe spoiler edge, you can seee that access hole you need an 11mm socket for all these bolts, and an extension, I used a 1/4 rachet.
you can see above the other 2 bolts per side spoiler are really easy to get to, they're not torque hard at all either, its a very simple process, I"m shure the filling is another story.
the end result, looks like crap lol, I didn't bother cleaning it, so yours will look like this if you did the same as well. I will however clean it as I go back down stairs after I write this up. check back in a month probably to see the installation current date (dec 19/03)
update march 17
I have now filled in all the old hoes with fiberglass on the underside/inside, and then body filler on the outside. I sanded it down to make it flush with the rest of the car, and is now ready to have the aftermarket spoiler mounted and the car painted. hope you enjoy
***********UPDATE ***************
nov 24, 05, its been awhile. but here are a few pix of under nieth. I found where the holes needed to be, and then drilled with a small drill, and then followed it with a hole cuting bit ni the center four. the outside ones are in weird spots which dont permit that and dont need it. I need to relocate some of my holes, after that, since I lost the rubber gromets, think I will use some left of FAT MAT stuff, that or find some rubber that I can cut to shape and make it myself, probably silicone it as well or around the bolt anyways.
