I'm sure you tried the vendors. You can use hanger bolts if neccessary. They are in the hardware bins in the hardware stores. Many sizes and lengths from which to choose. Also available in stainless.

They have different threads on each end with an intergral flat washer (part of the stud itself) in the middle.  They are about 1 1/2" long overall, and the lower threads (into the trunk) are 1/4-20.  The upper (into the spoiler) are more like a wood or self threading type of screw thread.

That's what hanger bolt are, But no integral washer. I left out the thread specs. Sorry about that.

 Sauron327  Thanks for the tip. I was wondering this same thing myself and when I bought a "kit" on Ebay awhile back all I got was some 1/4x20 pieces of threaded rod & a bag of nuts & washers. Not at all what I was looking for.

Your welcome. Spoiler studs are self tapping. You'll have to tap the hole to do it correctly w/ the H. bolts.
