help install coupe spoiler

Anyone willing to help or at least overlook me when I get my spoiler in about a week? I need to drill holes and was concerned I would do something wrong. Let me know if anyone is willing to help me out

I'd have a bodyshop do that part man. You only get one try drilling holes in the body.

i know i haven't bought it yet, but was going to purchase one off another member in about a week.. I wanted to make sure someone could help me first. I think a body shop would charge a buttload if I could just do it myself..

I know a shop that did my spoiler, it was $100 to install it, but he didn't hook up the wiring for the spoiler light. So that, I have to figure out myself.

I do not think that anyone wants to be responsible for any potential mishaps.

okay thanks guys i guess it'll be a little longer before I can get it then, since I wasn't planning on paying to get it installed. carbon, where did you take yours to get it installed? How long did it take?

It was in hayward/union city area close to circuit city by 880 exit by union landing.

It took them few hours. Someone else actually dropped off my car and waited. So my guess, 2 to 3 hours.
