OEM trunk spoiler install

Hey Everyone,

Got around to installing my trunk spoiler. Took about 1 1/2 hours. The template really makes it pretty easy. I didn't drill the end holes as I didn't want to drill into the trunk in the event I went back to the chrome spoiler. The double sided tape (already attatched) on the very ends secures it well enough. I did however drill 3 holes where the previous chrome spoiler was located. Prior to screwing your trunk release button and or camera back in the bracket, make sure they are centered with the holes.

What was needed:
1. Blue tape or masking tape.
2. Small screwdriver.
3. Small Phillips.
4. Socket set (sizes indicated on instructions).
5. Drill and drill bits (sizes indicated on instructions).
6. Metal primer (coat the holes that were drilled).
7. Alcohol.

If anyone's on the fence whether they should go with a third party install or if they should do it themselves, I think a DYI is pretty easy.
