Is it a ballsy move to install...

Is it a ballsy move to install a spoiler to my g35x. I have no clue what I'm doing, ok i have a clue, i've seen the videos and read directions. But i have never installed a spoiler before. Should i just wait for a pro?

yes, an 18th of an inch off and you will kill yourself. Trust the people who do this for a living.

notreally, if you got a drilling template and a steady hand, I dont see how you can mess up.......i mean.....seriously.

And if this is one of those spoilers that are taped and not even bolted? I don't know why you're still waiting for a response, they should already beon your car

i think you can do it with instructions.......but a local shop shouldnt charge more than $100 to install this if you're willing to spend the money.

there are two holes on each side and pretty spread apart so I'd have to say no.
