Thanks guys...the car was dirty so I washed it today. The spoiler came but I just didn't have enought time to get it installed....looks great though (factory paint). So...for you guys with a 2009, not sure if the 2008 configuration-wise around the rear of the headlights but holy shit is a ROYAL MFPITA to change the headlight bulbs. I am no stranger to the process of installing H4 style bulbs but they give you ZERO room to work with especially on the driver's side unit. Needles to say, about 1 hour and 25 minute later I was done with the pair. I hope the light output is THAT much better. Anywho...here are a few clean shots....2 with steelies and 1 with the caps back on.

With the bulbs, the service manual shows to remove the entire headlight assembly (4 screws to do so). From your post, it sounds like you "managed" to change them without removing them?
