Acquiring drilling template to mount OEM trunk spoiler

Hi guys,
Wondered if there was a way I could get a copy of that template I have seen others use to line up the center drill hole to mount the OEM rear trunk lid spoiler. Based on some posts I saw, it comes with a kit sold on the internet. Problem is, I bought mine off of a junk car and don't have anything to line it up with. Would it be possible for someone to scan it as a pdf at scale and email it to me. My email is panzer948@gmail.com

I'm in the process of repainting it now. First time taking on this challenge. I will let you know how it turns out with pics.


Thanks for any help!

I mounted oem on both my cl's and just drilled the two holes on each side. There are two dimples on each side where the holes are to be drilled. Then I had a friend help me position the spoiler over the holes and the center bolt rested on the paint and I gently hit the spoiler to leave a mark. Drilled the hole where the mark was and everything lined up perfect. Proceed at your own risk.

Good point, I think I saw where people were drilling from underneath. However, for that center bolt I guess I will from the top. Did you line it with silicone too or use some kind of rubber grommet?

On the first oem spoiler it was new in box so it had a nice new foam seal gasket.
The second one was used and i used some 3m weatherstrip adhesive tape. No leaks at all. I little silicone wouldnt hurt where the bare metal is for rust prevention.
