Mine should be here tomorrow! I hate living so far away from the real world! (Living in AK) I'm taking ti to an autobody shop for an estimate so that way i'll have a warranty vs. doing it myself with no warranty! prob wont post pics as you all already know what it looks like installed!

Well the wing from Sportwing showed up yesterday, just like what was posted here before. Perfect condition, in the shipping container they took care to make sure it was secure, yet no marks on the paint. I really like the way they handeled everything, shipping my questions and so on.
Now, Just need to install it.
One qustion: The center bolt, to drill it the instructions say to do this from the under side to the top side. The instructions show a few measurements from the underside, this is how those of you who have installed it did this, correct?
One more question, what did you do for the holes? Did you put some primer on/in them? Thingking of rust, just looking for suggestions.

Well, my first mod is complete as i have had my wing installed! I absolutely love the look of my car that much more now! IMO, the 300s should have come with the spoiler direct from the dealer... or at least the option. As I am not willing to take a chance with drilling into my car as i am with any other mod, I had it installed by a local and very reputable body shop and they charged me $75 and had it done in about 45 minutes (not bad if you ask me)... I had tons of their employees coming up to me in the lobby asking me about the car while i was waiting, and like any PROUD 300 owner; I answered their every question. now waiting on the right time to pull the trigger on a new mouthpiece for "Fang".
Stay tuned.

That's probably because we didn't buy our cars for status level!! LOL

Those of you who installed with drilling, any worries about water leaking in the trunk when it rains?

Good question. If I am not mistaken, there is a rubber like seal tha surrounds the bolt on the wing, BUT still that is kinda my question. I am not so worried about alot of water from rain, washing and such as I am about the bare metal where the hole is rusting. I am thinking that a little tape off area and some spray on primer to stop the rust? I was also thinkging that I have liquid electrical tape that may also work. it is a thick goo like stuff that may also work with out spraying paint all over.
Any thoughts or suggestions?

Yeah, as stated before there is a seal and the bolts hold the wing down tight to the seal and the car. Not worried at all.
