Default Nismo spoiler

Help!!!

Just bought an after market Nismo spoiler for my newly acquired 2014 z. It looks great but I got no template. My local Nissan dealership will install it but they have to have the template. Do any of you guys have a Nismo spoiler template that you would sell me. I bought the spoiler at ikonmotorsports. They don't have a template. Thanks. Jack

I figure since the wing is not OEM, it might not have the same holes as OEM, so you should probably do this.

Transfer the zip ties onto the hatch by firmly holding the tie and taping it onto the hatch. Lift your spoiler off slowly. Get a sharpie to mark where the tab lands and that's your drill mark for your spoiler holes. .

Also a little different approach to the zip tie method might be - center the zip tie on the spoiler holes you wish to use (the tie half & half on each side of the hole) tape it fast. Then take a very small drill bit & drill a hole in the zip tie at the center of the hole. Then when removing the spoiler you can just drill through that small hole in the zip tie.

Just food for thought!

Drill slightly larger holes so there is room to move the wing around when tightening if needed. Use silicone or rubber washer to avoid leaks.
