I'm running a spoiler less trunk right now and really want to try out a spoiler for a while. They're pretty cheap and come painted for like $100 online but I'm not into drilling through my trunk.
I know I can buy another trunk and swap them but that just seems like too much work.
Is there a safe route of Getting it on and assuring it won't fly off on the highway.
Specifically the 06-07 model.

 

 

My 06 wing is bolted on but it does have some double sided tape as well. You can try using some heavy duty 3m double sided tape. I know majority of the roof spoilers is held by that. Other than that idk anything else you could use that won't mess the paint up and trunk.

 

^haha, man..nah there is no way. Sorry, but no adhesive is going to work. For the safety of others (not to mention protection of your pocket book. You can be sued for negligence afterall). Its drilling or no spoiler, bro. Don't be a statistic.

 

Kicknshift, I went on line and checked out all the possibilities, everything you can hang on your trunk lid must be bolted on! I guess you could get a roof spoiler that's applied with double sided tape and install that...Naa Maybe you need to make up your mind exactly what kinda look you want and bolt it on!

Others safety is definitely first priority.
I'll probably just see if anybody is interested in trading and if I have a change in taste later on just revert back to wingless.

Thanks for the relies.

 

What color? I may be willing. I'm IP.

 

No unfortunately not im DG

 

should be easy theres always someone willing to swap

 

I've had other sport coupes that the rear wing was stuck on with double sided tape. Never had a problem with them "flying off" or anything. Though I do admit the ones that are bolted on are much better and have a much tighter/flusher fit with the trunk lid. Hard to get the stick on ones to seal well on the edges. Many car manufacturers have been sticking rear wings on cars for years without drilling any holes.

What is different about the G35 trunk lid that everyone says they must be bolted on?

 

^ a manufacturer would NEVER jus tape parts on. It's always bolted on somehow for safety. If u saw that it wasn't either the owner did that or a dealer half assed the job.

 

Depends on the type of spoiler. I had one of those M3 lip spoilers on my coupe and it was on with tape. The tape was really strong and took some clearcoat with it when i removed the spoiler

 

That's completely different tho. That's super light weight. A rear spoiler is much much heavier and couldn't be supported by tape. And those lip spoilers usually suggest you bolt them on regardless.
