Do you see above where it was compared to a factory spoiler above in this thread? Are you saying that both spoilers compared are aftermarket, different, and different in the same exact way? Is it possible that the OEM uses a threaded-in stud and those simply came out when the nuts froze on the end of the studs making it seem more like a bolt?
Thanks for the info.

Guys, please explain or pass what you're smoking over here? This is a "some day" project and even if it just hung on the garage wall I consider it worth the hundred bones(shipped!).
Additionally, it would make quite a badass Batarang.

From what I can recall at least from back in the day, the OEM GM spoiler had 6 studs that were molded into the spoiler. You then had to use a template to drill the holes and install the nuts from underneath.
The spoilers from DIFDA (because I have one) mount the opposite. The nut is basically molded into the spoiler and the bolt is installed from underneath after the holes are drilled.

Yes you got a great deal even if its just wall art!
I bought an aftermarket on on eBay brand new painted for $100 shipped but it didn't look right and the fitment was slightly off but not bad. It looked great but I knew it was not OEM so I waited until i found a OEM used painted one in great condition on eBay for $70. So I know what exactly an aftermarket and OEM is.
