Any one know where I can get a template to install a GT rear spolier on my 09 v6 local installer wants $80 to do the install and I think it cant be too hard if one had a template. Thanks Jeff

Thanks but I am talking about the rear wing that mounts on the truck lid. not the bumper. I need some way drill the holes in the proper spots. I purchased the rear wing from a member here in sept. right after I got the car its off an 08 GT and has the studs but my deck lid doesn't have the holes and I looked in side the trunk and don't see a spot to drill them correctly so I need some sort of placement template.

It's really quite easy. Open your trunk lid all the way and you will see two oval shaped indentations evenly spaced from the ends on both sides. That oval is where the holes are drilled for ALL the spoilers regardless of design. The GT and V6 share the same holes. I could take mine off and install a GT without having to change anything. All you need to do is create a paper template of the bolt positions on the spoiler and transfer it within those oval indentations. Then drill carefully. Start with a smaller drill and open it up from there. Don't go full bore from the start.

Wow, they actually wanted to charge you $20 per hole?! That's crazy but that's the way some people are.
Glad you are able to do it yourself. Did it come with any type of adhesive backing on the spoiler?
