    Measure the width of the trunk. Find the middle and mark it. Measure the distance between the two mounts. Cut that amount in half and the measure that half from the center of the trunk. Mark it left of center and right of center. You now know how to install it evenly.

    Was about to fit the exact same spoiler, all measured up but started to rain so came indoors to wait it out,.. found this video and boom! I've now ordered a pack of 100mm M6 bolts. Thanks for the info, you saved me a trip to the hardware store and all the inconvenience of finding out the hard way. Many thanks

    Quick tip for Alan keys if you use the other end of the Allen key you can tighten bolts faster but I understand you have less leverage but more motion

      @Alek Wolf I put it on a Nissan Altima coupe. It looks great! Easy to install. Doesn't obscure the side mirrors. Obviously it obscures the rear view. But I love how it looks. And so does everyone else

    Your bolt were long enough cause your suppose to drill a bigger hole on the inside so you do end up crushing the supports

    Any trunk bending/deformation issues now that you've had the wing on for awhile? I didn't see any reinforcements on the bottom side i.e. fender washers or sheet metal bracing, etc. Thanks!!

  • @Rrocksstar
    @Rrocksstar 3 роки тому +8

    Nice video. Did your internal trunk support frame bended from inside because of those longer bolts that you used to fix the spoiler? Also is it the correct way to install it on the trunk support frame from inside or does the holes on that support frame has to made wide and tighten the bolts all the way to the top metal later of the trunk? And does the spoiler makes your trunk warp or bend after a few months or years?

    He did a great job installing it and he could a socket set for those tight spots! However, A spoiler on that style car just looks wrong! Maybe if the car was black or maybe it is because I am not a spoiler person!

  • @louisgroenewald9927

    so how do you prevent it from rusting ? you surely had to add some type of coating to the exposed metal where you drilled the holes

  • @Skuhunter-sx8vz

    • @ryangretlein656
      @ryangretlein656 3 роки тому +3

      Generally it’s best not to so that you can still remove it yourself later. But if you’re ok with that risk, you could always sand and wield metal parts together, solder in the guides on the screwheads, or use headless screws.

      Universal and adjustable and mult-piece spoilers will have that problem, most spoilers made specifically for your car will only require bolts from inside the trunk.

    Real question . I really reall need to know if it held up from the nuts going on the 2nd layer of steel metal . I have a spoiler for my wrx n it’s similar and I have layers as well but most ppl Iv seen put bolts directly on the other side of the trunk . Wouldn’t that wear down after a while . No thread lock and it could just weaken . I duno . My first time. Lemme know how it’s been after how much time if it got loose . Details pls dude . Cheers

    Has your trunk bent yet? Without proper support and the small footings they tend to always bend your trunk. Mine did on my Scion tC, just wondering.

    • @TheIdleCrow
      @TheIdleCrow 6 років тому

      What would "proper support" be?
      Please share in your wisdom to me, because I want to put an after market spoiler on my car.... But I don't really want to see my trunk bent and I can see how that could happen....
      The way I see it, how he had the really long bolts going though the support frame of the trunk wouldn't that me enough?
      What more could you do?

      @benjaminreed6652 5 років тому

      CDNBaconRich he most likely got it on eBay. There are quite a few sellers of this wing on there and more like it. And honestly the quality is great and depending on the car you put it on, it looks great too. I have one on my 2002 s2000 and it has held up to the Arizona sun for over a year now. Normally eBay has some iffy products but I would honestly 100% recommend this wing.
