Swapping the lip spoiler with the Deck lid spoiler

I just bought a 08 TLS but I hate the lip spoiler the car comes with it. I want to put the Deck spoiler on it but are the holes in the same place or do I have to do body work to it to make the swap?

By "deck" spoiler, do you mean the none type s spoiler, or the WING spoiler?
The non type s spoiler is almost the same as the type s spoiler.. what exactly is it you want to put on? you should clarify "deck" spoiler in further detail.

I'm guessing you have the TL-S lip spoiler since you have a TL-S. Neither the TL-S lip nor the regular lip has the same holes as the wing. I'm not sure about how the holes line up for the two lip spoilers.

Now, if you want a wing, your car is WDP, and you're in the area, I'll be glad to swap trunks with you.

^^^ Funny, I just logged in and was going to put that as an option.

CSL lip is in a league of its own. Its aftermarket, and while the shape and style is simply hot, I have yet to find some one who can fit it flush to make it look like it belongs.

For Example-
