BRZ Spoiler Attachment - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

SkullWorks · 03-08-2012, 01:43 PM

Did anyone have the foresight to look for signs of how the deck lid spoiler is attached?

I preordered a limited in SSM and I'm not sure there will be a large potential for trunk swaps in that color, I know all the cars I've had to do a spoiler delete for it meant getting a new decklid or getting the holes re-welded and painting...I'm not sure a spoiler delete is feasible at this point in the early production.

So I'm ignorantly hoping that they just use really good double sided tape, hopes and a couple unicorn dreams to hold the spoiler on...

who's with me?

but seriously did any one stop drooling long enough to look, god knows i didn't

Personally, I couldn't tell. Underneath the trunk is carpeted.

Not sure about the logistics of removing it. I posted this thread in the mid-atlantic section:

Looking for someone with a WRB Limited in the DC area that wants to do a trunk swap. I guess I'm the odd ball because I actually like the look.

It will most likely have through holes in the trunk. I'm hoping someone comes up with a replacement spoiler that's more lip-like, that covers factory holes.

Yeah the spoiler is bolt onto the trunk with 4 large holes on the edge of the trunck. I saw a photo of it before but can't find it anymore.

yeah there's no way they would ghetto install the spoiler with double sided tape lol.

Hopefully the TRD duckbill will cover up the Limited attachment and reuse the holes.
