Blade spoiler
Blade spoiler is for sale on shopchevyparts for 346 in case anyone wants to buy it. Original 495. I just ordered one. I should get it on Thursday or Friday. I'll try to tackle the job myself (drilling required).

Much cheaper then they said at first...
How do you plan on filling the holes in the trunk, body shop? Pretty sure I read a few times it doesn't cover the holes left by the standard SS wing... |

I have a buddy of mine at work that restores cars and was going to get his input on this (filling in the holes). I'm going to see how the blade spoiler kit mounting points are once I get it and go from there. If the job is too involved to tackle I'll have the dealer do it.

About a year ago, my friend with a new accord wanted to swap wing for blade so we went to a body shop that has done work for me. Was told about $500 to fix holes and mount. Involved welding new material in, grinding, body fill and repaint.
BTW, Ill lay odds the RS v6 spoiler conversion to blade, covers all the holes......

I agree with Glen. Any reputable body shop would be able to handle this. If they are filling in holes it should be with metal and paint the entire trunk. If you want it done right the trunk needs to come off. Will be cheaper to respray while trunk is on the car but anyone with paint experience will figure out it was repainted then think it was in an accident. If it is taken off and painted correctly be hard to know if the paint matches well on the outside.

did anyone confirm that there are bolt holes that the blade spoiler doesnt cover up? Seems weird that chevy would offer a spoiler that you would have to fork over more money than the price of the part in body work.

No drilling. Didn't think to ask if there is a 1 piece spoiler coming. I'm thinking yes but who knows. Might be available when this option goes live later this spring. Hope so cause this is what I'm waiting for.
