Since these were shipped in the trunk and dealer installed, there is no absolutely correct location...correct for a particular car may be different from another.

so, will the mere shape of the chin spoiler itself give me a clue as to the location? In other words, does it fit pretty close the the right location or can I be way off?

I've seen them mounted all over the place too. That's the reason I haven't mounted mine. Sometimes they look more vertical (from a side,profile perspective) other times flatter, or more horizontal. Also, I question the mounting method. Some say nuts and bolts, while, an alleged original '71 spoiler car I saw in Carlisle had them secured to the car with black rivets.
