How much for stock spoiler found one on junk yard+some parts for 5 speed
How much for stock spoiler found one on junk yard+some parts for 5 speed
Guy does not want to give me it without the trunk but anyway i'll try to push on him that car is 96 and i have 97gxe so if i'll take it how hard is it to mount it on properly i.e the same way as on factory.
Also that car was manual so the shifter and pedals with main clutch cylinder is still there as i'm planning to do auto>manual swap(not soon though) should i get those parts or it's not that rare to find manual car i.e when the time will come to swap.

the pedals and master cyl could end up costing you 300 bucks brand new, if your planning on doin the swap i say go for it. i bought an oem spoiler to put onn my gxe and lemme tell ya it was kinda nerveracking drilling into my nice trunk but we got it done well. had to make a good template to get it centered right
I pulled off my factory spoiler to fix a leak in the trunk -- there is a writeup somewhere on this forum. If your GXE did not have a spoiler to begin with, you will have to make a template like the prior members suggested. If you are able to buy the spoiler without the trunk lid, once you remove the spoiler, take some measurements of the location of the holes and then use a piece of 8x10 white paper and a piece of dark crayon and hold the paper over the holes and then rub the crayon over them to get a close location of the distance between each hole and their location on the trunk.
The five inner mounting holes (four for the spolier and one for the third brake light are easy because the spoiler studs do not fit tight in the hole -- there is plenty of space. However, the four mounting holes on the edge of the spoiler have to be the correct size and cannot be reamed out or the plastic grommet you need to buy won't fit tight. Definitely take an exact measurement of the diameter of the holes on the each end of the trunk lid top. When you pull off the spoiler, you will most likely break off the grommets and clips on each end of the spoiler because they get brittle. I have the numbers of the grommets and clips if you need them.
I was able to order them from everythingnissan.com at a substantial savings.
Hope that helps and good luck!!
