I did'nt use any of the hardware only relocating the two center bolts from the OEM spoiler and using tape to hold down the ends. It's been awhile, so do you many pieces there actually were. I'll look tonight and see if any of the nuts and bolts are left lying around..........

I have a new spoiler sitting here (not for sale) that has the studs and the aero tape at each location. Look like the two center studs line up with the old spoiler location. Are you needing the studs and nuts or what?

OK found a bag containing 4 bolts. They look to have ~1" threaded section with a clip on the end. Also has four matching nuts (nuts have attaching washer)...is this the hardware you need (image attached)???

What is shown in the picture is all you will need - that's because you will re-use the 2 bolts that come off your OEM spoiler on the full-length one.

If you can get your hands on what is in the picture you will be good to go.

Do you have the instructions?? There is a bit of trimming/enlarging of the rectangular hole that the center brake light connector goes thru that you have to do...

Hope this helps...

as I mentioned in post #3. frmd808, your pieces will go in the mail tomorrow!

Frank

ps-TIP: to remove the two pieces that you will re-use (the center pieces) you will need some vice grips to clamp onto the tip of the bolt on the OEM spoiler (there's a flat spot for it).

pss-and don't forgot you HAVE to cut a bit of the slot (yes on your car)where the current light hardware protrudes because when the light gets transferred into the race spoiler it will interfere.

Another note

I mounted mine without using the tape supplied. The 6 bolts are more than enough to hold the spolier down - the purpose of the tape is to try to eliminate those small gaps at the very ends of the spoiler - problem is you still get gaps and heaven help you if you ever want to get the spoiler off to clean or wax under it.

My not-so-humble opinion....
