It was pretty easy actually. All you have to do is spread playdoe on your trunk where you think the holes would be. Align the spoiler until it looks straight from all angles and then press down. It should leave an imprint of exactly where to drill your holes and BAM, just screw it in from the backside and take off the double sided tape. The actual install took me about 30 minutes including the wiring which I disconnected my 3rd brake light and wired it up there.

Yeah I plan to do that. I'm actually about to take my headlights off and black them out. Any suggestions on what to seal it back up with? I'm gonna be putting them in the oven on 250 for about 15 minutes. Hopefully that will do it.

Looks good. In just 30 mins? Nice.

I plan on doing this when I get back from Cali in a couple weeks. I got an 04 with the small factory spoiler on it already. Don't know what I'm going to run into trying to take that thing off...

probably a lot of double sided tape D=, yeah it was a really easy install. The headlights took some time though, I started at around 1 and finished at around 6.

I'd remove the third brake light and install a new shelf to give the factory look.

Where did you get your spoiler?? $110 is a good price for a painted one. I wanna replace mine because it has a deep scratch and it cannot be buffed out

Use dental floss to work the badge off... Be careful to pull the badge straight off. Then hit that area with some goo-gone. A quick buff and then some wax.

That's what I did with my 4th gen at least.

Will an 07 trunklid fit an 04? Then i could just get the factory spoiler with it.

Some punk *** kids threw concrete rocks at my max last night while i was driving. Nailed the top of the trunk lid, deep scratches to the metal, dents, a mess.

Oh, btw, i caught them. Luckily I saw them the whole time, busted a tire squealin' U turn, hauled *** through an alley, parking lot, back on the road, parking lot and wham... they ran into their house!!! Dumbasses.

I just have to say to them, I hope you enjoyed your night in jail and congratulations on your first felony-criminal destruction of property with damage over 300$.
