Guys, if you bought and are getting ready to mount one of the lightly blemished spoilers off Ebay, DON'T do it until you apply some JB weld around the bolt posts on the spoiler!

When I tried to mount mine, as soon as I started fastening the factory nuts, after several turns they wouldn't tighten any longer and I discovered it was because the bolt posts on the SLP spoiler were TURNING WITH THE FACTORY NUTS!!! I don't know HOW SLP designed this thing, if I got a messed up one or what but BEWARE!

I managed to get 5 out of 6 of the nuts off this thing but this last one is worrying the hell out of me... wish me luck and please don't make the same mistake I did, though how the hell was I supposed to know it was like this??

Make sure to apply JB weld around the bolt posts of your spoiler before mounting it and fastening the nuts!!!!
