Rear wing install suggestion
Just installed the duraflex rear wing on 2006 350z touring. I was nervous about hole locations as the wing has 2 attachment points and getting these right the first time is obviously important!
in the end I attached thin cardboard to the underside of the wing with blue masking tape- then located the bolt holes under the cardboard and cut them out.
placed the wing on the car in the correct position and then attached the cardboard to the car with tape. Once this was secure I slowly and carefully lifted the wing off of the car- leaving the cardboard in place- exposing the 2 hole locations that would have to be drilled.
holes were drilled and wing placed back onto car- bolts lined up as hoped with no issues at all😂
duraflex fitment was not the greatest- but turned out pretty good considering the price. Hope this might come in handy to anyone else trying to only drill and get it right the first time!
Wing placed in position with cardboard taped to the underside of the wing- then cardboard taped to car
After the wing was gently taken off with the cardboard remaining you can see the correct location of the holes to be drilled
Finished product

Hopefully you didn’t have to drill for it
