... issue with the rear spoiler... the now infamous paint chipping problem. Removed the spoiler, used touch up paint to repair the chips (with the exception of an almost pin-head sized mark, all of the damage was under the spoiler... not visible now after touch up), and used thicker washers and additional 3M tape to maintain spacing between the spoiler and the decklid. Used blue Loctite and torqued the nuts to between 40 and 45 lbs-in (less than stated in the TSB) to maintain spacing. No leaks, the mounting nuts have stayed tight and no more chipping.
