180Custom spoiler question

Anyone using thier oem spoiler on coupe?
i just received it from them and want to ask you guys if its normal to drill 5 new holes to mount it?
i thought that 3 holes in "middle" part will fit the same holes where chrome lid was but unfortunately they wont.
Did you guys drill all new holes?
thanks

The OEM spoiler has you drill 4 holes I believe, drilling is not out of the ordinary and they are not all in the middle, near the outside end as well.

I got a 180custom oem spoiler and I chose not to drill into my trunk. Just used 3M tape. You can drill into the holes that are already there and 3M tape to finish. Mine's holding up fine and it's been about a good 6 months.

what are the 180 ones going for? I work for Infiniti, so mine won't be too expensive, still overpriced though lol.

Mine is 3M taped all around. I hit at least 140 with that spoiler on. I cruise daily on the highway at an avg of 75-80mph. Even my autokits v2 diffuser is 3M taped and just 2 plastic screw pieces that wouldn't event hold it if my tape were to fail. 3M tape is strong stuff, but if you want peace of mind just fill in the existing screw holes..

Does the 180 one come with the wiring harness, replacement trunk lid bumpers, new heavier duty trunk hydrolic lifts?

Hydraulic lifts on a spoiler? Sounds fancy.

Does anyone know the price of the spoiler from 180 customs? Even with my discount from Infiniti, the damn thing is still $460. Theres not much markup on the price apparently....
