high rise spolier convert
Right now i have the regular spolier not the high rise z28 one. Now is this going to be hard to convert, going from the low one to the z28 high rise? 90 rs if that helps

The 3 piece, when removed, needs to have the holes filled in the decklid and the ¼ panels as well. There's a few ways to do it but, welding is the better of them. The highrise bolts to the outer edges of the decklid and on the center post (of the wing to the decklid). New holes will have to be drilled and old filled. This is not a simple bolt on and call it a day install (unless you go for the dual spoiler look... )
Even if you had the (I [think it was 88 only) low rise, the 91-2 high rise still doesn't share the same holes exactly.

Its bolted on , gut the trunk area remove the taillights and the plugs in the deck and its off. Filling the holes will almost double the price a body shop will charge to do the job unless you know em good.
