This is a fairly easy install... the most intimidating part is centerpunching and drilling your BRAND NEW car ( Right, Larry? )
Follow your directions!!! I am posting this to possibly give others the insight and confidence to do some projects themselves.
Take off the interior plastic from inside the hatch... pull the center out from one edge and work your way across.. then the side pieces.
Lay out your template....
Cut out your template with care... take your time.
Don't forget these cut lines... they allow your template to lay flat over the raised hinge areas.
Align your template at the center and tape it in place top to bottom evenly
Check one side and tape it down...
Now check the other side and make sure your spacing is even side to side and top to bottom... If adjustments are needed... do it.... then complete the taping.
Once you are completely happy with where your template is... grab your automatic centerpunch... Take a deep breath and punch the four spots for the drilling.
Drill your holes in stages as the directions state.
I noticed this edge with a curved lip... hmmm
I then installed the spoiler and noticed how the curved lip hugs the hatch....
With the lip hugging the hatch...correctly.... here is the side profile...
The other side....
And the finished product....
