quick question for anybody, are these four little screws the only thing securing the spoiler to the blocks?


No...to fit it correctly there is a fitting kit from Toyota that includes proper bolts like the ones that hold the spoiler to the boot/trunk lid, it also includes some captive nuts in a bracket that clip into the underside of the spoiler keeping it very secure.....IMO you should be using this kit as little self tapping screws arnt strong enough...there is potentially alot of force going through the spolier, both from wind resistance, and if you use the spoiler to open the boot/trunk.

I know this thread is old and I'm not much of a big poster on here but I'm really wondering what the answer is to the above question..
How much is it? and what is the exact name for it? (if any) Thanks

I just mounted my blocks, and realized that useing the two screws like this write up says really isn't the best way. where you drill the holes on the spoiler is really soft material, seems to be a harder version of styrafoam. So i mounted them once, then took them off to paint, and the holes i drilled were basically stripped. Definately would not recomend just using the two screws, doesn't seem too safe to me.

I realize thats how its supposed to go on, and that you can buy a kit to install it, I just thought I would share my opinion so others don't run into the same problem

I'm about ready to install my blocks to the Celica. Seeing as how this thread is a little old, has anyone figured out a more secure way to mount that doesn't use the kit mentioned before? I don't want to go on the highway and see my blocks fly away or anything like that.

Just get some serious threaded short screws and it works fine.

I've mounted them twice and never has flown off.
If I ever attempt another install, I'd use a combination of washers with toggle anchors to hold the spoiler on the block.
