Default Spoiler install question: Suggestions needed!

My spoiler from the zender GB is scheduled for delivery today. Incidentally, my 20K service is scheduled for tomorrow morning.

Should I ask my dealer to install the spoiler for me? How much do you think they'd charge?
How long do you think it'd take?

I know its a 'DIY' job, but I totally suck at these things and don't wanna risk botching it up. =P

Thanks in advance.

Default Miscommunication. Your ZendAr will NOT be delivered tomorrow :-)

It is still on teh boat from Denmarkia.

j/k.

Wouldn't hurt to ask the dealer for an estimate. If you have someone else do it, it might be better to go to a local body shop instead.

Default You're right.. It WON'T be coming tomorrow.....

... cuz it's coming TODAY!

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll ask the dealer how much they'd charge. I wasn't sure if they were limited to installing only "Audi Made" products.

Thanks!

be sure to post once you receive it.

Appears to be a simple clean the trunk lid apply glue and stick spolier on application.

Default Dealer just said they won't do it....

FACK.

Thats essentially what I'm afraid of if I do it myself... putting that sucker on crooked.
Also, doesn't it need to be 'anchored' in place while the glue/adhesive sets?

Why does life have to be so complicated.

I think to anchor it you use tape until the adhesive sets up
