REAR SPOILER DRILLING

Installation Instructions
Not Vehicle Specific - Example shown on a Honda Civic
IMPORTANT: Always test fit part before any prepping , paint work or drilling begins!
Step 1.
Remove the trunk liner if one exists and clean
decklid. (See Image A). Place the locator strips
into the mounting holes on the spoiler and when
applicable, LED brake light hole. Masking tape
is used to hold the strips in position.
(See Image B).

Step 2.
IMAGE A IMAGE B Place spoiler on closed deck lid and align to
proper position. A measuring tape will ensure
a perfect alignment (See Image C).

Step 3.
Using masking tape, secure locator strips
to the deck lid of the vehicle. Remove the spoiler
by lifting straight up, leaving the strips still
secured to the deck lid.

Step 4.
IMAGE C IMAGE D Using a 1/8" drill bit, drill thru the locator strip
holes and into the deck lid. (See Image D).

Step 5.
Remove strips and using a 5/16" drill bit or we
prefer a unibit, drill thru the 1/8" hole that was just
created in Step 4 (See Image E). If spoiler is
equipped with LED brake light, drill that hole also
at this time and feed wire thru the decklid
(See Image F).

IMAGE E IMAGE F Step 6.


After deburring all holes, apply small amounts of
primer or rust inhibiting fluid to help prevent any
rusting.Using supplied screws secure spoiler to
the vehicle preferably using a ratchet/nut driver,
if using an electric drill set to lowest setting and
avoid over-tightening (See Image G).

Step 8.
If spoiler is equipped with LED brake light, it is
recommended to splice into the 3rd brake light in
IMAGE G IMAGE H the vehicle and attach the spoiler wires using
electrical tape (See Image H).

Step 9.
Apply small amounts of silicone based caulk
over mounting screws as this will help prevent
leaking, rusting or loosening of screws.
(See Image I).

Step 10.
Finish your install by vacuuming any debris or
IMAGE I IMAGE J metal shavings, reinstall any mats or panels that
may have been removed (See Image J)
