How to Install Car Rear Spoiler: Guide

Level Up Your Ride: Installing a Car Rear Spoiler (DIY Guide)

Before diving in, ensure you have everything you need:

• Cleaning supplies (soap, water, microfiber cloth)
• Duct tape (optional)
• Screwdriver
• Drill with a ¼ inch drill bit
• Punch tool

Prep the Trunk Lid:

• Clean Up:  Start with a clean surface. Wash the trunk lid thoroughly with soap and water to remove any dirt, dust, or debris. A clean surface ensures proper adhesion of the spoiler.
• Open and Prepare the Trunk:  Pop open the trunk and locate the underside panel. This panel is usually secured with retaining clips. Carefully remove the panel and set it aside for later reinstallation.

Positioning the Spoiler:

• Find the Sweet Spot:  Hold the spoiler in place on the trunk lid. This is where you’ll decide on its final position. Ensure the mounting holes and adhesive strips (if included) line up correctly.
• Alignment Guides:  Many rear spoiler kits come with plastic alignment guides. These guides have holes that should match the fastener openings on the trunk lid. Use them to ensure the spoiler is centered and positioned accurately.

Securing the Spoiler:

• Align and Secure:  Once you’re happy with the spoiler’s position, carefully adjust it for a snug fit on the trunk lid. Make sure the alignment guides extend beyond the spoiler’s edges.
• Mark Drill Spots:  With the spoiler positioned, use the alignment guides as a reference to mark the drilling spots on the trunk lid with the punch tool.
• Drill Time:  Carefully remove the spoiler, leaving the alignment guides in place. Now, use the drill to create holes at the marked spots, ensuring they’re approximately ¼ inch in diameter. Remove the alignment guides once finished.

Attaching the Spoiler:

• Double-Check Alignment:  Open the trunk and confirm that the drilled holes align perfectly with the mounting points on the spoiler.
• Screw It On:  Use the screwdriver to carefully tighten the screws through the trunk lid and into the spoiler’s mounting points.
• Adhesive Assist (Optional):  Some spoilers come with adhesive strips for added security. If yours does, remove the protective layer and firmly press the spoiler onto the trunk lid following the manufacturer’s instructions.
• Final Touches:  Close the trunk and re-check the screws for tightness. You can also use duct tape (optional) to hold the spoiler in place while the adhesive cures (if applicable).
• Reinstall the Panel: Reattach the hard fabric panel that you removed earlier from the underside of the trunk lid, using the original retaining clips.

Important Considerations:

Professional Help:  While this guide provides a general overview, some spoiler installations may require advanced knowledge or specific tools.  If you’re unsure about any step, it’s always best to consult a professional mechanic to avoid any damage to your car.

Spoiler Quality:  Invest in a high-quality rear spoiler from a reputable brand.  Look for spoilers made from durable materials that can withstand weather conditions and high speeds.
