You can order them from Tom at 360 Dynamics; that's where I bought the ones for my car. :)

So hurry up and install yours! LOL ... Have you called about the "lost" hardware yet to ask if they will send it to you?
Have you painted yours yet? What color is your car?

Don't install it unpainted.

If you use the double sided adhesive that comes in the installation kit you will not be able to re-use it if you remove it.
The spoiler can't be painted while on the car because you just can't mask the car off well enough and still get all the angles to shoot paint so it will look good.

If you are determined to install it still primer gray, then ONLY use the screw-on C-clamps and then remove it when you want to paint it.

how cheap would you have to pay someone to do it? probably like $80 or so is my guess. and thats if you don't know anyone. OZ got it done for $30 b/c he knew the guy and i'm guessing if you half ass know someone maybe $60. i'm guessing with shipping being roughly like $20 for here and back to you together it'll only cost you $40.

Cold engines always look low on coolant - LOL - but I'll make sure it is the correct level just to be safe.

The filter is one I just bought off the shelf at a local auto parts store called AutoZone. I do not remember the brand.
The aluminum intake is the same brand as the filter, but it was for a Honda Civic and I cut 4 inches off the end to make it the correct length.

yeah paint alone should only cost about $20 but i already have clear coat so thats where i would've been able to save you some money plus no labor charges. but yeah i'm saying at the very most someone might charge you like $100.

I checked my coolant and it was almost at the minimum mark, so I topped it up to half way.

LOL - I will start posting pics and let MMamdouh tell me what needs to be done for maintenance! :lol:

--

As for paint, my friend at the paint shop told me it cost him $20 and he only charged $10 to actually spray the spoiler, so it was a total of $30.
