Will this interfere with the trunk lid when opening?

The RKS profile is designed for standard trunk clearance. Before final installation, open and close your trunk fully to confirm no contact with the wing endplates. If your vehicle has a power trunk or non-standard latch geometry, verify clearance manually before torquing fasteners.

What mounting hole pattern does this use?

Verify your vehicle's existing trunk or deck lid hole locations before installation. This wing is engineered for OEM mounting points — compare the three-piece assembly footprint to your current holes or reference your service manual for standard fastener locations specific to your setup.

Is the clear coat durable enough, or do I need to reapply protection?

The factory clear coat is UV-protective and sufficient for normal outdoor storage. For maximum longevity in direct sun or harsh climates, you can apply a ceramic or polymer sealant over the existing finish. Do not sand or strip the factory coat — it bonds to the carbon fiber and provides baseline protection.
