hey man.

its 1/4

the holes that are already there on the inner tailgate is a bit larger. i forgot what drill bit size i used to drill the outside holes.

on the image i attached.. they look exactly like the first one(left to right) of the second row. i wanted to use actual bolts but wasnt sure if they'll stay tite.

The spoiler is installed.. used Hillman pn 881212 1/4" nylon rivets, screw in from Lowes. Drilled 1/4 holes in the outside of the gat and factory holes on the inside were fine. Probably took 45 minutes. I'm going to take the original gate protector and cut it to butt up against the spoiler, on the inside of the gate and it'll be a done deal.

Don't know if y'all can go here for pics or not. Oh, with the bed cover, you need to snap the cover down then close the gate

Vette is gone, past toy. It was one of the 2004 Indy 500 Parade cars. What can I say, wives and cars I can't keep...
