If it’s not a Ford Probe spoiler, then I would suggest lots of masking tape and lots of measuring before you drill, this isn’t measure twice drill once it’s measure everything multiple times before you drill.

There is a template for fitting a factory spoiler, but I’m not sure who has one?
You might try one of the American Facebook pages like Ford Probe Owners
Or a search in tinternet.

The other thing you should check is if you have the 4 rubber bungs on the underneath of your tailgate, if you do, then that will make things a bit easier

I think that Slick may of had the template at one time.

Do you think that they are something that we can reproduce Malcolm?

Yes, I'll have to find them first, then it's just a matter of scanning them, then I can just email them to members

Send me your email, via PM and when I can get on the computer (probably tomorrow) I can email them across and you just have to print them out, and cut it out
