Is it possible to replaced wing spoiler with lip spoiler?

I'm having a hard time finding the color combo that I want (blue/quartz) in 6mt with navi and the one that I did find has the wing spoiler. Would it be reasonable for me to ask the dealer to replace it with the lip or are the two attached differently and will leave holes in the trunk?

From what I've heard the drill patterns are different, I doubt they could just remove one and put on another. Sorry

I've seen the installation instructions for both and the hole patterns are definitely different... That doesn't mean this is an unreasonable request, they might be able to exchange the whole trunk lid with another blue TL.

i just looked at installation instructions for both, and it looks like youre SOL unless you get the front two holes patched from the wing spoiler

when I had my lip spoiler put on, the guy called me to confirm that I wanted lip and not wing - he said it is no problem going from lip to wing, but from wing to lip is a problem - holes will show.

why not ask the dealer to replace the trunk lid to seal the deal?
