    they dont just drill holes, they have to align it up and all that shit so its not crooked.

    yeah....alot more work goes into it, lining up the holes, make sure it sits right and supported...etc etc etc, 50 dollars sounds right, especially if you want it done right

    no prob, i have never had a spoiler put in nor heard of any prices, but i have seen people put them on and for $50. that seems like a damn good deal. (considering they do it right)

    amusing, if not a little bit entertaining. Even though I have a feeling this is a joke i'll post anyways...say you drill a bunch of holes then what do have? unless you plan on using a sheet metal screw or drywall anchor you'll need to get a nut on the bottom...is the interior panel off the hatch/trunk? If not, then that will have to be removed so you can get to the bottom of the screws. For best results you'll need an aluminum plate fabricated or large washers underneath to keep the downforce of the wing from pulling the screws up.

    Spray-glo on Peachtree Industrial will do it for $40 or $50. They do them all the time and they'll do it right, center it, and make sure it's anchored correctly. They're good people there. Cheryl is a really nice lady so treat her with respect and she may even give you a deal on it.

    They will also sand and spray unpainted fiberglass wings to whatever color you want, clear coat them, and then mount them for $150-$200 depending on the size of the wing and how much time it takes to get it mounted. It might sound like alot, but you you can be sure it's done RIGHT and will stay put. It also won't be a moving lawsuit when it flies off your car

    Call them up and make an appointment so they can work you in.

    so if it's installed right and flies off your car it's not a lawsuit because it was originally installed correctly?
