I know your pain really well…

I’ve added this spoiler to two cars… which means drilling the quarters out for the side pieces twice. Definitely a stressful endeavor. Yours came out great!! Looks so much better.

I originally wanted that spoiler, but just couldn't get myself to drill some holes in my rear quarters! lol. But it is a really good looking spoiler!!

Yep I hear you. It took brass balls both times to muster up the courage to drill them. It’s not for the faint of heart.

I think if I was contemplating drilling into my 1/4s I'd need to talk to a crisis counselor.

Lol. With the car you saw at laps in phoenix, I never had the pictured template to get the quarter holes close. That one took me 4 about hours a side to get the hole placement right before I drilled. I was shitting bricks punching the holes on that car. I saved the template from the spoiler I put on the current car just in case I decide to do one on another car and have to use another used spoiler like the first one was.

That's for sure! I remember when I had the Hines Hex Vents installed. I bought them and contacted Steve Hines who live about a 2 hour drive away from me about installing them, asking questions. Since he installed a bunch of the at a Camarofest for forum members back then, he told me if I wanted to drive up to his house, he would install them for free!! I'm gone!! lol. We took the hood off, laid it out on the saw horses and got it all prepped and ready, before he drilled the first hole, he looked at me and said, you still want to do this? Once I drill, there's no turning back! I said yep, cringed a bit, the rest was history, had them installed in my stock hood. Looked great! But boy I tell ya, it was hard as you said to make that first hole..

UNPLUGGED MY ONSTAR; i dont pay for it anyways since i have a local CAA monthly roadside assistance membership already.

AND i HATE seeing Blue & RED lights in my rearview mirror, cuz in canada thats always bad news $$$ tickets incoming

AND i turned the mirror upside down and now the trapezoidal shape matches the shape/angles of the rear window , instead of opposite and i get a bit better rearview mirror visiblitty

(Monday this week) Put a Cold Air Inductions cold air intake on it that I bought from @The_bald_eagle_machine. Turned out pretty good! Now I get to hear the "whoosh" sound of the motor sucking in air
