Picked up some roof rails and a spoiler

[Taz Magister]

bought these locally for an xbox and $100 so I was wondering the best way to go about installing the roof rails and how to go about pluging the holes in my lid from the stock spoiler also what do you guys think of me leaving these black and maybe painting what ever there called that go down the side of the body black too here is how my car looks atm

 

[Taz Magister]

anybody?

 

[SeanGTP]

Paint the spoiler, leave the rails.

Paint the spoiler, leave the rails.

agreed

 

[redlinepontiac]

3m double sided tape for the roof rails, buy a se decklid and paint instead of filling holes, and the moldings on the side are door ding guards.

 

[redlinepontiac]

actually sell me the rails

 

[Taz Magister]

seems like getting another decklid is too much work

I'd have to see a photoshop picture with black door ding gaurds, but it would make it unique

well ok, grind paint from around hole, weld holes shut, grind smooth, add filler, block filler level, prime, sand primer, seal and paint. then drill 3 new holes add strip caulk around spoiler studs, drill access holes on underside. bolt on spoiler and enjoy.

or buy push pin plugs and mount spoiler

 

[SeanGTP]

tape it on with scotch tape.

 

[redlinepontiac]

For the rails...you need to remove the factory rails. And if you just dbl side tape them, they are likely to be gone if someone knows what they are. I used an epoxy puddy. They are rock solid.

 

[redlinepontiac]

or do that

 

[Taz Magister]

and I was told that all but two of the holes line up with this spoiler

the real 3M double sided tape for exterior stuff holds super ultra strong. don't let it fool you. i almost didn't get my lip spoiler off my car when i was taking it off for paint.

Wrong maybe one lines up the front three arnt used at all and the ones for this spoiler are in a completely dif location I know where there is a trunk lid with the holes for this spoiler for 150 plus shipping but its 40th aniv purple.

Probably thinking of the Gen1 SLP spoiler. At least that's how mine lined up to the factory holes.

 

[Slick2500]

Yeah I think most of the aftermarket spoilers use the stock mounting holes, even the SLP ones.
