Thank you, sir! I've had them for quite a while now, but i don't use them cuz the tires are too small. I'll sport these as summer rims once i've got the right rubber to wrap them in.

Thanks for the compliments.

And yes, i will be using the paint you gave me...most definitely...and keeping the bumpers black.

Flush mount spoiler measurements

When I bought my car in 06, it had a flush mount spoiler on it already. It came like this from the dealer so all these measurements are how they set it up. I took pics of my measurements to aide in the installation. Trust the number that I am putting over the pictures with the tape. The angle of the camera was off enough to give false readings. The hole made by the dealer appears to be 1/4".



Obviously the 2 right mounting points simply mirror whats going on, on the left side of the car. The measurement from the left edge of the trunk to the center of the left mounting point is 3/4". The vertical measurement to that point from the closest lower edge to the center if the hole is 2 7/8". Just mirror these measurements on the other side of the trunk and you will have the right side complete.







The left inner measurement from the left edge of the trunk to the center of the inner left hole is 18 7/8". The vertical measurement from the lower edge to the center of the hole is 3 1/2". Once again if you will need to replicate the mirror of this to complete the right inner mounting point.







After you mount the spoiler it should look just like this.





I hope that this is enough information to get the job done. If you still have any questions just let me know.

Thanks a million, bro. I really appreciate you taking the time to get these measurements for me. This is exactly what i needed. I'll let you know how things go.

[SanJoCaF22DrAcc]

yeah, I am happy to help with flushies. With anything really. There aren't many to begin with. Hurts even more when they get damaged due to improper installation.

[islandhopper]

No worries. I will check and double check my work before i finish mounting this bad-boy up. I intend to take great care of all the rare and valuable parts on my car, especially the oh-so-coveted flushmount.

Thanks again for your help. I added to your rep.
