Its really not that hard at all. you just take the old one off by the bolts and stuff under the trunk. after you take that off your going to have to put the new spoiler where you want it and drill some holes. Don't quote me on this but you may be able to use a couple of the old spoiler holes but maybe not when your putting on the new one. Pretty much just drill some holes and slap it on there. The only real challenge to putting on a new spoiler is getting it to the color of your car and patching up the old spoiler holes. Paint can be easy if you get it professionally done but other than that, just the holes. Use bondo or something like that on the holes and sand. then you can just paint over it.

the problem you are going to have it the holes in the trunk not matching the high rise spoiler. You will have holes left in the trunk. You best bet is to try and find a trunk at a junk yard or something that has the wing. Otherwise youll need body work to have those holes filled

The holes shouldn't be that much of a problem if you know what you doing. I helped my cousin out with his celica spoiler to put a supra spoiler on his. He had some holes to fill and we just used some bondo and patched them right up. Looks rather nice actually. I'm thinking about putting a turbo wing on my spyder and that is what I am going to do. If you don't really know what your doing though listen to TheEngineer that is another option.
