Spoiler Install

I was wondering if anyone new where I could get a template for an MCS spoiler install on my MC. I need it so the shop can drill the holes in the top of the boot.

Why don't you just wait until you have the MCS spoiler and THEN drill the holes????

Dad and I installed his wing without templates... We made our own, kind of.

Just eye-balled it, marked, and drilled. Came out pretty good, and didn't take more than 15-20 minutes...

Old pic, I'll try and get new ones soon...



Take care,
Leo.

We used this liquid, which I DO NOT recomend 'cause it was messy and left residue (still there). It was kinda like liquid super glue, if you think about it... But a little stronger. (Zap-a-Gap is the name).

If I were to do it again, I'd definitelly take more time and patience, and do a better job with the sticky-stuff... I know they have a special black glue for this, (name escapes me), but I would use that. With a lot of patience...

Leo.

I think I'll just get the dealer to do it. Too much of a pain
