TRD Lip Spoiler Installation (GTA)
 
Hey,

I've got an authentic trd spoiler coming in the mail sometime today or early next week.

Was wondering if anyone knows of any reputable individuals or garages that can install it for me for a decent price?

Preferably I'd look into the Toronto or Markham area.

Since I have a monogram, the oem spoiler would have to be removed, along with oem bolts and adhesives, and holes be patched using the provided vinyl covers. Plus there are two more holes to be drilled because of the trd spoiler.

If anyone has any suggestions please let me know.

Thanks!

Get them to document the process and you will be a hero on here. I also have a monogram and want the dumb spoiler gone.

I installed my TRD spoiler without using the two bolts, just stuck it on with the 3M adhesive and its on there solid. I also believe that it will cover up the existing spoiler holes.

I'll try and take pictures if I can get someone to do it. I'm not confident enough in my own skills to do it myself... At least to get it all done on my first try without having to readjust or fix errors.

It does cover the holes :). And I'd like the bolts on there for extra security

Heseemed very knowledgeable about our cars so you might want to check him out.

Thanks for your input! Yeah I've read great things about them too. Definitely on my go to list. I'll give them a call once the spoiler arrives and get a quote.

I heard MS Auto's body shop is pretty good. They are in Markham at 20 Heritage Road. The owner's name is Leo you should ask him for a quote.

Anyone know how to remove that two bolts from TRD lip? Any tip to remove them? (I dont have any machine cutting tool)
Btw from my experience, 3M tape is strong enough to hold the spoiler. I have 05sti roof spoiler with only 3M type and used to drive over 130mph on the track for years and still solid.

I literally just ripped mine off with pliers. They are just two plastic tabs held on with adhesive.
