so im gonna be painting my type r spoiler soon and installing it... now i know theres going to be holes left over which i need to cover... thats fine i have figured out how i will cover the holes and get that done and fixed up...

my question is my OEM spoiler right now only is being held on by 3 bolts... theres two on the driver side which is normal... and only one on the passenger side... for some reason the one looks like it was broken off? by who i have no idea why... i do remember something that my acura records show broken spoiler on it... so maybe thats what it was...

when installing the type r spoiler i was told to reuse the screws/studs (not sure if thats the correct term) that are in the oem spoiler... am i supposed to just use pliers and pull them out of the OEM spoiler?? if thats the case i would still need to go buy an extra screw/washer for the 4th hole that i am missing the bolt from?

and how hard is it to remove the broken stud in the spoiler right now...?? cuz i want to resell this spoiler so i'd like to get it out so the next person wouldnt have the trouble...

thanks

The studs are part of the spoiler. mine is missing a stud on one side. 75% is still passing. I wouldn't worry about the missing stud on the spoiler, as you probably can't get more than $50 for a used gsr (oem with 3rd brake light) spoiler anyway...

yeah my type r replica spoiler never came with studs... i guess thats what you get when you go with a replica... i am gonna just mount it with screws and washers that fit the predrilled holes on it...

yeah 3 bolts has held my spoiler on for years as far as i know so its still good ill just sell it as is when i do sell it...
