Default NISMO V1 Rear Spoiler Install Help

I just bought a Nismo V1 spoiler off a user, it didn't come with a template or all the hardware. I looked on google and the threads to find anything but couldn't find anything relating. Does anyone know the size of the nuts and bolts and or have a template i could borrow ill pay shipping both ways. I just really need to get this installed by a week. thank you ill post up some pics if i have to.

I installed the same spoiler a while back and don't remember the size. Just go to the hardware store to see the bolt size.
But if I were you I wouldn't put holes in the trunk like I did. All u have to do is put double sided sticky tape (3m) and that will be fine. I sold my spoiler to my buddy and had no problem.
Also put epoxy or something cushiony around the side of the spoiler or else u will get scratches near your window area.

Does it have any holes for the screws at all?

Best bet is to install screws first into the spoiler then holes into the hatch using where it sits. The spoiler is too heavy not to screw in IMO so I would not suggest just using double sided tape.

Regarding placement I would just place it at the edge of the hatch as I have on my Z






You will also need to remove the underside of your hatch so be very careful and try to use a tool that is made for removing body panels since it is very easy to break the clips underneath

yeah I'm pretty sure it uses to holes from factory but there is also 3 more in the spoiler that would need to be drilled towards the window. I'm not sure how i feel about double sided tape... I mean i don't track my car but do i really want that much of a useless wing?

Thanks for the kind words guys. I mailed it with the install manual this morning and sent OP the tracking info. Should be there on Monday. This forum has been so helpful for me over the years so I do my best to help others as much as I can
