Well, Use your Demel tool and go to it.

First Duct tape on your deck where it will be installed:



Then you take the Demel to it:



You take a little off in the middle at a time until the ends sit flat on the deck. It's a little trail and error.

There is room to mount it with or without the brake light. I like it without the brake light. However, that leave a cavity that not everyone likes. I think it is smooth looking.

The spoiler is fiberglas. Those strips are the ones I trimmed from the underside of the spoiler. That is the mod you make so that the spoiler can sit flat on the deck. Otherwise the ends of the spoiler will have gaps. The Z rear deck is more curved than the G35C deck so that is what is required.

Unfortunately, I do not have any pictures of that process. As you can see it becomes a mess and you just want to get through it with precision. You need to concentrate. I didn't want to stop the process as it took a few times to get it to set just right. I think it took me like 4 trail fits to get it just right. You want to take a little off at a time so that you can see the effect of your trimming and adjust. It sounds a lot more difficult than it is. Just go at it slowly.
