Aim: Lift your stock wing up a bit
Required: spacers/nuts/gromets
Steps:
-Remove your stock EK wing by removing the plastic under the boot then the 4 screws

-Then lift up the wing and add your spacers/nuts/gromets what ever you prefer to use on the outer stud (closer to brake light) now use the nut from the wing and bolt it on the same stud you put them spacers/nuts/gromets on.

-Now bolt the wing back on and its lifted :P

Other comments
Make sure when bolting back on the 2 nuts on the studs, it covers and sits flush on the hole to prevent water leaking in.

im trying it now, do you still bolt the boot to the wing or do you just put the nut ontop of the spacers and let it sit in the holes its supposed to be bolted to and only the nuts closer to the front of the car are holding the wing down/ if you know what i mean

only the 2 front bolts (closer to the front of the car) are bolted down. the other bolts are with the spacers on the stud and sits on top of the hole to prevent water from getting in

what size washers? 1/4''? and stupid question but does doing this reduces the clearance when you open the hatch/boot?

Use what ever washers, doesn't even need to be washer. I just threw on some bolts over it then put the original bolts over it.
