OP albertucsb_dup1 New CEG\'er A Joined: Apr 2003 Posts: 20	Hey y'all. I went to the stealership for various maintenance and asked them about tightening my loose spoiler mounting nut. And each time they friggin forget... So My spoiler is not pretty loose. I look under the trunch where the mounting bolts are, but they are concealed under these rubber/hard plastic cushions. There is no way I can fit a socket in there and the hard plastic mounts appear to be riveted in. 1) do I have to drill out the rivets and remove the plastic mounts? Or is there an easier/magical solution to this problem? Thanks guys, al
