CLK Coupe 200 Komp 53 Plate
Spoiler Install

I got my spoiler yesterday after ordering from my dealer on Monday, I paid £215 which is about $300 bucks I think.

CLK guy has advised me how to fit it on, any other suggestions please, also should I use the bolt or not?

I'll post pics before and after.

Regards

Neil

I know I have posted this before, but AMG recommends that you do NOT use the screws which come with the spoiler. Just use the self-adhesive tape.
Also remember you only get ONE try at positioning it.
I have also been told that the adhesive sticks more securely in a warm temperature. Maybe you could warm it with a hair-dryer after you have installed it?
Merry Christmas!!!!!

i'd hate to see a CLK trunk get drilled into...

I got mine from Harris and the glue tape works great. No holes and strong as with screws.
