I'm hoping someone with previous experience installing these can help me out please,
I received my risers a few days ago and started working on them today, however after taking the spoiler off I see nothing matches up.. I'm aware the block and the spoiler wont match and new holes need to be drilled, but the block and the bottom of the car do not match up anywhere, I tried taking photos best I can resting the blocks in position Here is how the risers look upside down on the spoiler (not mounted)  The riser over hangs over the boot (as they all do, and i took a photos in that gap..  So you can see the mounting hole on the block are like 1cm from the boot then the mounting hole can be seen on the right from the boot far away from everything  Anyone experience something like this when installing? or am I missing a piece Any help would be appreciated thanks -------------------- |

If anyone is interested..
I've got some brackets that I made to match up the bottom of the risers and bolted them to the block then put rubber on the bottom and going to seal it for it to be weather proof then I just need to drill the correct holes for it to fit the car, but thank you for the replies, searching around its hard to find photos of a bottom of a riser and this helps me grasp how to mold mine
