They unbolt from the undernearth, except for the 2 front points, if there are plugs on the top.

are you talking about the foam spoiler or the s5 spoiler??? anyways.. just open your rear window hatch, take out your spare tire, and look with your eyes. and make your fingers doo the finding.

not a factory spoiler... could be a dealer installed Mazda spoiler but probably just something that a previous owner installed), but no 87 model year Turbo came with a Factory installed rear spoiler (including the flat rear Sport spoiler or the 88 and later GTU style spoiler).

The Turbos didn't start coming with a factory installed spoiler until 88 when they started coming with the GTU style spoiler actually put on in Hiroshima when the car was built.

got a photo?

I love that wing.
I have an 87TII. no wing.

Im making a deal now.
so far I saw 3 of them on ebay. all about $100

Now I found 1 in my own town. about the same price too

Is this about right?

I know it's a hard find.

You can see my my wing before, i took it down.
It makes other cars go crazy. + I feel ricey.
