Thumbs up RPI Spoiler Install - Goodbye Picnic Bench!

Spoiler arrived in good shape, paint was better than expected. Love it.

That new spoiler looks nice. What's the thing you got on your rear window?

Blade spoilers look soo much more natural on these cars.

Very nice. I agree , the car looks much better without the pedestal spoiler. Have to say I was disappointed that GM wouldn't allow you to order the car with a spoiler delete option like with the Mustangs. Or that the SS didn't come with the blade instead of the bench.

thanks guys:

1. The "thing" on the rear window is a "window spoiler" you can find on eBay for $35.00. Best bang for the buck mod

2. The side-skirts are ZL1-replicas from Carbon 7, very reasonably priced....

It is very tight, but I'm going on a year now with no issues of it rubbing. Even when other people close my trunk and they treat it like a 90s civic and slam the hell out of it

Does this spoiler fit the factory holes? Any drilling required? Any holes left exposed?

thanks

Drilling is required on the SS. No holes are left exposed.

At least according to RPI's install video:

Correct 2 holes need to be drilled on the ss and There's 2 holes that you have to cover with supplied patches. They're hidden under the spoiler and mine have never leaked.
