13' STI Spoiler install?
Just purchased a sti spoiler for my 13' wrx. Anybody have experience in installing these spoilers? I want to install myself, but if it needs professional installation then ill do that.

Of course, once its painted to factory oem color!

Please help! Thanks!!!!

Its honestly very easy.. I did it once for a friend on his '12 sedan. All you need to do is take out the bolt ons in the trunk. I recommend doing this with another person. If I can pull apart my friends wing again I will do a picture tutorial for you. I will ask tonight.

That would be very helpful! I bought the car wingless with no wrx wing or anything. So its a fresh trunk with no holes. So the pictures would be great!

Yes i am. Thats why i was wondering if anyone has done this before. I wouldn't want to, and have a professional do it. But just want to see if anyone has done so maybe i can do it with some help.

why dont you just trade someone for a trunk with holes already, saves you the the problem of drilling holes.

To each their own, but seems like most prefer wingless these days. You probably should have hit up the trunk trade thread before buying that thing.

I think you will want wingless in the end... Wait it out.. Or buy a different one, or trade.

After reading that thread I can see why you haven't found a trade.
