Hey guys,
Just wondering how you guys attached your GT4 posts to your spoiler. I was thinking of using locktite on the bolts, I was wondering if there was anything to put between the spoiler and the posts ? I'm a little worried that only two bolts hold it in place. Thanks fo the hizzle DEF This post has been edited by defgeph: Mar 16, 2005 - 5:15 PM --------------------  I will return one day. |

Thanks fo the hizzle DEF [right][snapback]258085[/snapback][/right] I just used the supplied fitting kit and has been fine, If the WRC cars use it without any trouble, I`m sure it will be fine on your car. |

Thanks DEF [right][snapback]258097[/snapback][/right] Sure, - 4 bolts the same as the ones that hold the origional spoiler to the boot lid, sorry the "Trunk" lid, 4 captive bolt clips that secure onto the Spolier (you have to do your own drilling here) but you can see where to drill on the moulding marks on the spoiler, and 2 stickybacked velvet pads to go between the raiser blocks and the boot lid, sorry, "Trunk" lid. and thats yer lot.

[right][snapback]258424[/snapback][/right] Because this spoiler is going on my carbon fiber hatch. But, I shouldnt have to mold it because the CF hatch should have stock shape. -------------------- I will return one day. |
