Now get rid of the 3rd brake light. It looks terrible with the LED in the spoiler. Or t least just disconnect it for now.

Did you silicone around the edges of the spoiler to make sure water won't leak underneath and get into you trunk and/or rust out our trunk lid?

What did you use to make the marks to know where to drill? You know how you placed the spoiler on the trunk, how did you know where the hole was to bolt it down basically.

got a sharpie....got some tape and started taping until it filled the hole and made a mark by inserting it straightso that it hit the middle of the hole

I would suggest some washers or some sort maybe lock washers to keep the nuts from backing off with road vibrations. All in all it looks great!!
