I found OEM rear spoiler on Megazip warehouse in UAE and order it.
my car had no rear spoiler so I have to make 4 holes on my trunk to fit spoiler, 2 for 7mm screw and 2 for plastic fastener.
and also I have some difficulties for stop light because it is different from OEM type.
I decided to cut some pieces of spoiler and make it fit to my car stop light.

Yes OEM spoiler comes with 2 screws with nut and also 2 plastic clips on edge.
so I have to cut 4 holes in trunk lid.

Is it easy, is there any "pre hole" in the trunk

Yes half an hour work I think really easy.
No pre holes I had to drill 4 holes.
off course it is better to replace stop light with rear spoiler type to fit this spoiler but it costs 72$ so I decided to use my stop light instead and do some little modification to spoiler to fit.

and I do some research and find out this hole use to mount side sill guard and technically can be mounted on my kizashi so I ordered parts and it turn out really fully compatible.to install side sill guards I have to drill some holes in door.

I made a template for guards and use it to drill and it really helped a lot.

Nice work! Gutsy move to drill holes in perfectly good sheet metal, however, your daring efforts were rewarded.
