Recommendations on Where to Get Spoiler Re-Attached in Dublin??

    Hello,

    I have a Japanese Yaris I imported that has an aftermarket spoiler attached.

    After an ill advised trip through a car wash this has come mostly unattached.

    It was originally held on by two bolts, whoever fitted it seemed to drill 2 holes for the bolts to come out and screw into the spoiler.

    One of the bolts is still attached but a bit loose, I suspect the other one may have come out before I got the car. There was also some double sided sticky rubber helping hold it in place.

    I'm guessing the back of the boot lid would need to be removed to get access to the bolts.

    And to add to my woes the boot will now not open, so I can't get it at it to have a look myself. It is possible that the bolt from the spoiler has fallen down into the locking mechanism of the boot and is stopping it from opening.

    I'm wondering if someone could recommend somewhere to bring this to get it reattached that would be relatively inexpensive. Perhaps somewhere that specialises in modified cars as I suspect my regular garage would not want to do this.

    Any recommendations would be much appreciated. I live in the Dublin 6 area.

    Thanks

    Just as a follow on to this, I brought it to www.japshop.ie (found them through another thread here).

    They fixed the boot, reattached the spoiler and raised the suspension all for €50!

    This seems great value to me so I thought I'd post back to recommend them.
