I had to tighten them up a little on my spoiler. They weren't loose by any means though. Thanks for letting us know.

Did anyone bring this up?

The spoiler does need to be removed for the trunk stripes.

Obviously the nuts weren't tightened enough when the spoiler was reinstalled.

Post #1 and #3

Spoiler does not need to be removed for stripes... it may be removed for stripes and I believe if it was removed it's probably tight now. Seems most have been from the factory like this...

I didn't get stripes, and mine weren't the tighest. They weren't finger tight either so I just turned them a little more to be sure.

Unhappy

I just talked to my painter yesterday (getting stripes put on) and he had to remove the entire back bumber/spoiler, all were finger tight. He is taking the front clip off later today/tommorw and I is going to be telling me if it is loose also. I will let eveyone one know. On a side note, it was his option that the paint job was well done.
