Spoiler installation?

Just got my spoiler in from Spoiler Depot. Aegean Blue color looks a little darker in the house and garage, but hopefully it's just the angle of light. I was under the impression that it would come with a 1 piece gasket template that fits right under the corners of the spoiler. It just came with a long skinny gasket strip. How do I mount this so that no water leaks in? Do I just cut it into smaller strips to outline the spoiler base? I'm sure water will still get under. I guess placing silicone around the holes will help the water from leaking/rusting in the trunk. Does acura sell a one piece gasket?

I brought the spoiler to a body shop for installation. They charged me $75. I've used this body shop for my maxima before and they did a good job. I also checked with Acura dealer and they wanted $185. Check around. Save yourself some trouble there.

I just found a detailed Spoiler Depot installation post with pics on the CL forum. I guess the long skinny gasket will do.
