    Looks good especially the top :thumbsup:
    You might find this handy - it's not complete just yet, but I'll have it all up sooner or later :fingersx

    I did the gt-s spoiler conversion last year on the vert, it wasn't bad since I bought the trunk/spoiler deck and corner pieces with the all hardware. Only holes I had to drill were for the corner pieces on the rear 1/4's. I deleted the 3rd brake light altogether.

    Thanks, I actually have already looked at that manual on here, and it's helped a lot. Unfortunately for the conversion I wasn't able to get the trunk lid with the spoiler because the lid was buckled and rusted. So it looks like I'm on the lookout for another trunk lid if i don't want the holes from the center light

    gt-s coupe trunk fits the vert perfectly. You might need new trunk struts though if yours are old the deck adds some weight :roll As for the spoiler hardware, there's quite a bit associated with this. If you're missing something, you can get all of it at a stealership if need be. I had the schematic posted before, but it's gone at the moment. I'll repost in technical if you need to check it out. :cheers

    I think I grabbed all the pieces I need. I'll post pics of it in a little bit.

    oo love the graphics on that spoiler! did you get the 4 little plastic things that support the middle spoiler? i didn't bother putting them on for mine so it might not make a difference

    No I didn't get the plastic thingies unfortunately. And I like the graphics too but unfortunately I'm going to have to get rid of them if I want to put this on my car. They need to be white.

    i used those plastic things...they do support the spoiler alot better if you use the edge of the spoiler to lift the trunk/hatch alot.

    Coool, you scored the spoiler :thumbsup: I'll get you more detailed info/photos. If you end up missing any hardware you can still get it at a dealership. As for the spoiler vinyls, I can hook you up no problem. You can check them out if you want, they're on my vert thread. :cheers

    doesnt need the plastic thingie. coupes are different from the hatches. just need to make holes in the right place and you're set! =]
    make sure you measure it right and dont eye-ball it. i f*cked mine up pretty bad.
