Default Spoiler swap?

I currently have a Tc with a lip spoiler, yet I like the wing better, is it possible to switch from my lip spoiler to a wing spoiler without drilling new holes..
Basically can I put the wing in and take off the lip without drilling new holes?

You need four holes for the pedestal spoiler, two of which, I believe, are shared by the lip spoiler. So you would be able to use the 2 holes you have but still have to drill 2 more...

I also recommend keeping the lip. At least 90% of the people who get the pedestal spoiler end up hating em. More power to those who can actually pull em off but really do a search and see just how many threads there are about filling the holes to get rid of a pedestal spoiler

I just spent $570 having my pedestal spoiler removed and holes filled. Now running no spoiler with a window spoiler. No regrets. Keep the lip spoiler. Use the money to lower your car and get aggressive wheels.

For that you could have had a carbon hatch.

OP think about swapping hatch's.

you have to drill 4 new holes... no if's, and's, or but's.... and you'll be left with 4 holes from the lip spoiler..

I had a pedestal spoiler. Ending up hating it, so I went the CF route. But do whatever makes you happy; it's your car, not ours!
