Default FS: OEM Rear Spoiler Alpine Silver $175

Located in Northern California. Local buyers preferred. Paint is in great shape.

I need to ask a question over on the technical forum. I am the second owner of a 1998 alpine silver GS. The previous owner had Lexus put on a spoiler, but they did not use the OEM and it's kind of silly looking. I need to find out whether the OEM spoiler will mount into the same holes I currently have in my trunk.

Thanks. I assume there are 4 mounting screws. Maybe you could measure the distance between the screws and let me know. I need to check out the holes on the underside of my trunk. It should be pretty simple to do (I would guess that there are mounting clips holding the fabric to the underside of the trunk). By the way, did you have a price in mind? Also, what are you going to do to fix the holes in your trunk?

Default key

CORRECTION: The OEM brackets were riveted to the trunk....not attached by screws like I put in my picture.

not sure if you needed all those instructions so ignore them if you already know how to take off the spolier.

Take a look and see if yours is attached this way. I wasn't able to measure it cuz I didn't go over to my friends house...just had him snap some pics for me. Let me know if you still need the measurements or if you can tell from these pics.
