holes for a standard 3 piece rear spoiler

I really hate the 1 piece rear spoiler on my '88 Camaro. It looks so european and that's not why I bought an american car. I found the standard 3 piece rear spoler on a junk yard but find it difficult to mark the drilling holes because of the threaded pins sticking out. Is there anyone who has a drilling plan or can measure up all the holes?

Make a pattern out of some card stock or board. Punch holes in the card stock so they pass over the mounting studs. Draw the outline of the spoiler and cut out the pattern. Line the pattern up to the fenders/rear deck and mark the holes. Drill. Bolt on. Done.

They are around. I sold one a couple of years ago and I still see them on Epay every once in a while
