Should I DIY?...
I have a OEM G35sedan nissan branded trunk spoiler in the mail But now the question is where do I install it...Dealership quoted me $425, then a bodyshop quoted me $300 and another one said about $200ish...but then 1 more said $60-100 but they installed my buddys spoiler a little crooked, should I just DIY this? I'm a little iffy on drilling holes in my trunk but if it saves me 400 bucks i might have to do it, anyone know a place in norcal that will install for $100-$150? thats really what im looking to spend for the install...let me know, thanks

uh not sure what drill bits..prob one for drilling into metal since the trunk is metal..and ya touch up paint on the hole couldnt hurt..u can never over do it..i have an oem dealer add on spoiler and u can see the screws when u open the trunk..they started gettin a little loose from my sub so i put lock tight on each screw so it doesnt rattle loose..not the permanent stuff though..i think permanent is red and the temp stuff is blue...i would do that also

Regular drill bits will be fine, just use SLOW rpm and it won't burn up your bit. Be patient and don't push down too hard, cause once it pokes through, you don't want the drill to slam down on your trunk lid and dent it. If you have touch up paint, that would be preferred, but if not, some spray paint sprayed into the cap and use a little artist paint brush (if you have one) or q-tip to dab and brush on to cover the exposed metal. I would also opt for loctite on the nuts.
