My wing was pretty bad underneath...here was my little writeup on our local boards just to add...

I've been wanting to do the raised spoiler for a long time since I heard about it draining water better and I knew what a pain in the ass it is to have a awesome-ly clean GP then you drive off and water trickles right out from under the spoiler...drive me NUTS. Here is how she sits stock...


The only tool you will need for this mod btw is a 10mm socket with either a 1/4" or 3/8" drive ratchet and some sort of extension (your call I used a small one and it worked just fine). So I had a little bit of time on my hands today and figured why not get it done. I went to Sutherlands and bought me some of these for 1.67 I think...but under 2 bucks (I used the red-ish looking ones on the bottom)


First thing you want to do is position the trunk half way between being all the way up or all the way down, that way you still have access to the bolts/nuts underneath it, and so when you you remove them the spoiler won't slide damaging the paint, or worse, your window...

Here are the 4 nuts and 2 studs I removed from the spoiler...


Next, I moved the trunk back down (but not closing it) and lifted the spoiler off of the trunk and set it down on a softer surface than concrete...looks like my floor mats will work since I am cleaning the car too!!


Here she is...all naked


You'll notice how nice my trunk looks without the wing attached to it...all that paint...gone...awesome. Way to go GM. That is caused by water sitting from the poorly designed draining system in GM's factory spoilers.



I took the 6 washers I needed...added a DROP (very small) of any regular glue, just to hold the washers in place while I set the spoiler back on...


Here is the spoiler installed without being really tightened down...should look about like this...


After tightening all of the nuts/studs back down to the spoiler it looks pretty much STOCK.


And here is a shot after all is said and done...sure don't look like anything has changed but when you run water on top of the trunk it just completely drains EVERY BIT of water that normally sits underneath it.

And lastly...laugh at everyone when it rains knowing water isn't going to be draining out still 5 hours after it got done pouring!
