Or do you have to drill new holes? I ordered the spoiler delete, but if my dealer F's up my order and my car arrives with a spoiler, I want to switch it out with a Roush spoiler.

The center part reuses the factory holes but you will need to drill new holes for the fender end pieces.

I am getting mine installed at the body shop in a couple of days. You have to drill holes for the side pieces. You also have to sand and prep the spoiler. The cost of prepping, painting, and installing the spoiler was a bit more than I had expected.

You can get the spoiler now painted. Then have the dealership install it for FREE. They were the ones who messed up your order.

Absolutely. And Painted from ROUSH is only $100. more. You canNOT get it done for that anywhere. 289 unpainrted/373 painted, $63 more for matalic paint, I think. Drop shipped to your dealer will save shipping fees to. And if you have a ROUSH authorized dealer there is a huge breeak on the labor fee. (At least down here)

Actually you have a HUGE bargaining chip. You have a spoiler for them. And the ROUSH uses the existing holes, so they dont have to pre-fit the main piece.

Everything is in your favor. Just Smile, and bring him a coffee.

I bet they charge you. To do it right, it takes time to install this wing. Also, the Roush painted piece seems really cheap. I haven't seen the paint quality, so I'd be hesitant to purchase it. I bought an un-painted on and it needs some prep and primer.

Good to know. I think my body shop guy over-estimated the time to install it to cover his end.

You can find the Roush painted and shipped for $330. I know a couple of people that have bought these from this outfit and they're both happy.

5-Star or another one? I would love to put a Roush spoiler on mine but, I don't have the money.

I like the Roush spoiler as well and though about going that route. Let us know how it turns out.

Just talked to my body shop. He stated that he had to drill holes for the center section.

There is no need to drill holes in the center section unless you had the spoiler delete from the factory. You need to drill 3 holes on each side of the center section to install the L/H and R/H end caps. I will try to show a picture.

Looks like you put [img] at the end instead of [/img] which is what you want to do.

Actually you DO need to drill two holes at the ends of the center piece even with the stock holes already there!
