Default Pedestal Spoiler to Lip Spoiler

Quick question. One of my friends has a lip spoiler on his tC that he doesn't want and i have a pedestal spoiler that i don't want, so we are looking to trade. Will they use the same holes? Or what needs to be done in order for this to work?

I think the pedestal spoiler has holes close to the glass that the OEM lip won't cover. You can go from OEM lip to Kami Flush Mount but that's it I think.

Damn, thats what i was worried about. I wonder how much it would cost to plug them and have the holes painted.

-the pedastal spoiler puts 4 holes on the trunk of your car, the lip spoiler itself can be attached using 3m double sided tape and ive heard from people that it holds up pretty well. plus if you do trade, you may need a template for the correct holes so it will fit perfectly, or you can eye ball it, well its not as easy-

this will give you an idea of where the lip spoiler holes are. you can swap trunks. I would get the lip spoiler, cut off the tabs and mount it with just double sided tape. cover up the wholes with dark blue vinyl sticker material. its better than drilling new holes or paying for bodywork/paint

Kaminari flush mount will only cover the two bottom holes. The upper two holes will be exposed. I have silver vinyl covering the upper two. haha.
