i really like the CR spoiler, and i was wondering if there was a DIY of how to install it, i feel weird drilling holes in my car and id prefer to see if some one else has done it and how they did it... thanks

The *best* way to do it would to buy a CR trunk, since the trunk itself is different.

Otherwise, you'll need to drill 6 holes, 3 on each side.

eh, i may end up gettin a decent spoiler off a friend for now and doing the whole CR trunk down the road... is it a direct bolt on for the trunk lid?

Are you referring to the rear wing, or the front spoiler?

If its the rear wing, you also need the reinforced trunk. There are retro kits around, or you can buy a CR trunk lid. AFAIK, the wing installs like the other two OEM one's, and the instructions are available at the dealer parts dept.

For the front spoiler, there are many threads about it. I'm doing it right now. I wrecked my 03, so I'm putting the 08 CR front bumper and spoiler on it. Can't wait to get it back.

I can tell you that the 08 CR bumper comes with the predrilled holes for mounting. But, interestingly, I've heard the the 04's and up have markings on the inside of the bumper for where to drill the holes, so apparently Honda had idea's about the CR as far back as 04!

I can also tell you all the mounting bolts, clips etc, run about $90 at the dealer. Must be something special about them! Maybe they are extra hardened or something cause Honda knows that CR owners will race their cars?

It will probably come with a drilling guide so that you don't miss
