Will Turbo Wing mount to stock holes?

[Blue Batmobile]

I'm planning on replacing my stock wing with a Turbo Wing on my 97 Eclipse. Will the Turbo wing mount to stock holes, or will I have to drill additional ones?

No the wing will not fit with the stock holes. You'll have to cover the stock ones and drill for the new wing

how many holes will I need to drill?

Drilling the new holes should be the least of your worries...it's filling the old ones that's a major PITA. You're looking at alot of money if you can't weld and paint yourself.

Yea, I have heard there are a lot of holes on the n/t spoiler. Never seen it for myself though..

Damn I counted today on an RS in a junk yard (98) but its 2am, I dont recall the #....... im sure someone on here knows

If i remember correctly, there is 3 holding on each of the side pieces on the rear quarter panels, 3 on each side off the spoiler on the trunk itself and one big one in the middle due to the fact of the wiring for the brake light

Looks good, looked like a lot of work. Glad to see that you replace the 3 piece spoiler instead of mounting a turbo look a like on top.

I was referring to a supra style wing on top of the oem 3 piece, have seen that one too many times. I know you have the oem turbo wing.

You did a nice job. I wonder how much that would run me if I had a bodyshop do the work...
