Re: JDM rear deck lid with LED painting

Don't cut off the side tabs - you need to remove the rubber around the rear window where they go (that's how Honda mounted them).

BTW - you MUST (!!!!!) use adhesive to attatch the lower part to the glass or the plastic that holds the four bolts in place will snap and the whole thing will break away.

Honda used double sided velcro - screw that! Get a good dob of the polyeurothane that they use to attach body kits and use that.

I speak from experience - 2 of the bolt tabs snapped on my SiR. The spoiler is now attached to the boot and rear window with 4 dobs of polyeurothane.

Setanta mine had allready been cut . As far as the glue goes as I put it on I saw what you are talking about what I did is used body kit double sided tape. Its the good 2" 3M stuff.

Re: JDM rear deck lid with LED painting

Cool mate - just check it regularly - that's what I used when the velcro came off and snapped the mounts... it didn't hold long either.

Re: JDM rear deck lid with LED painting

Why not just get an led bulb for the third break light and be down. I know it wouldn't look as good as the jdm one but iti'll look cool.

Where did you get that paint for only $18 a can? The NAPA dealers around here want $35 a can.

I have a PPG dealer here in town that doesnt charge a matching fee like most of the other paint places.

GTA I got the 3M double sided tape the next time your here will hook it up.

Re: JDM rear deck lid with LED painting

Looks nice. I wish I could find a duckbill style for a 4th gen. I've seen them but I can never find where to get one.
