There is no template, however if you download the instruction for install it will walk you through the steps. I did mine recently and there are two predrill stamp outs in the trunk lid (inside) that are you initial guides. The new spoiler normally come with two o-rings that are sticky (double side) which aids for the drilling of the front two screws. It not that hard if you have the ring markers, but is a scary job when you are drilling your own car. Good luck!!

Oh Crap!! broken bolts? it seem that the bolts are integrated into the wing. You may just have to buy a new wing or try to re-install new bolts and find a way to adhere them to the pods with so heavy duty industrial glue. I am not sure, how well it will hold up to the high speeds. Last thing you want to see is your wing flying off the trunk at high speeds.
