2012 spoiler
#3
I know that drilling would be required , not in the spoiler but the gate. I just wonder if the gate (back door ) is the same on basic model. And if inside of the gate thay have bracket to secure the spoiler. How this was done on other model years ? Did they drill and tred the hole ? I cant imagine to drill the hole in the door and use bolt and nut. That might make impossible to close the door. I would be intrested to see step by step info for 2010 and 2011 model years. Does anyone know where to find it ? Thanks for any help.

Thanks guys, but what I'am looking for is how this was done on base model ( 2010 or 2011 ). Looks like the spoiler on the pictures is on Sport model. I have 2009 Fit Sport and few Civics. My wife wants one more Fit, but base , but she want's a spoiler. New spoiler for Fit ( from dealer ) is only $264 + my labor. No sense to buy Fit Sport for 2K more just to get a spoiler ( well... and few other things that I never used on my 09 sport ) . Got 09 sport just to get cruise , that was not available on base model. It's not the case any more. With skirt, spoiler and fog lights U won't tell the dif. on 2012 base. however don't care much for fog lights (replace on my 09 3 times due to broken covers - on gravel roads - no more )

from what i read, the sport hatch has nuts welded inside the hatch sheet metal for the two bolts.

As for 2009 vs 2010/2011... they're all the same.
Edit: I thought my previous search link would work, but apparently not (it's based of the cookies on my computer).
