Default Kaminari Wing Owners - Please Help

To those who have the Kaminari Wing - did yours come with hardware to install it with? If not, what did you use?
Mine didn't come with anything but the stickers and these little plastic dealies, so any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

I am sure they could - I would just rather use hardware from Kaminari - you know what I mean?

And I all ready had it painted - i wasn't thinking about installation at that point

Yeah he will do it, he just can't believe that such an expensive wing wouldn't come with installation hardware. Kaminari hasn't gotten back to me about it and the company I bought it through has no idea, so this is my last try. If no one can help me on here, I guess I will just go down to Fire & Fastener and see what they would recommend.

well shoot, this is the first post that i know somthing that someone else hasnt answered! well i bought the big wing with the plain non-adjustable blade, and it came with all the hardware that i needed. the fasteners that come with the kit are all stainless and really good quality. the only trouble i had with the install was drilling holes through the underlying body structure in the decklid. it wasnt impossible but a little tricky. one thing that they did not include was a couple of rubber or plastic plugs to insert into the holes that you had to drill to mount the wing from the underside. but yes, all the hardware is included and the kit. i think there was 4 inch long bolts and 2- 2 inch long bolts to hold the blade to the sides. the plastic strips are for lining up the wing to drill pilot holes.

Thanks for the help greenbean!! Mine came with the bolts through the side pieces but no other bolts or fasteners. I will try to contact Kaminari again to see if they'll send me them.

And nightshade - i remember you from the GB from Kevin last summer. Thanks for your help too!
