Rear Lip Spoiler

Can anyone tell me how the factory rear lip spoiler is attached to the hatch? Is it bolted or simply glued in place? And can I get some advise on how to properly remove it if it's glued? I appreciate it...

Well if you got it from the dealer with it then it has screws and double sided tape.

its both. as far as removal. make sure the tape is cut first before you try to peel off the spoiler..
i peeled a bit off....and tried taking it off and cutting the tape at the same time.
that how i ended up cracking two spoilers.

so take your time!

Alright thanks :-)

Where exactly are the bolts located? I have an adjustable wing that i'll be trying to mount but I dont want to remove the lip and have those holes to deal with, instead i'm just thinking about keeping it in place and cutting recesses where the wing posts will be...
