Trying to remove my highwing spoiler

[two_wheel_mayhem]

Yeah this sucks, none of the bolts wanted to come out. With a little finesse I managed to win the battle on 3 of them and the last one refuses to give up. They overtorqued the bolts it seems like. After I get the last bolt drilled the spoiler is still taped to the trunk lid, taped on there pretty good as a matter of fact. You can also see the mystery hole that had a push pin in it. I can only assume that's where the brake light wiring goes through and they drilled it all the way instead of just the top layer.



You can see the bolts, one of them still has it's decorative cover on it. Removing push pins.



Pleasant surprise there is also a quick disconnect under the trim. (I thought I was gonna have to get in the trunk.)

You know what, I've got a little of that plastic from the factory stuck in between my spoiler and trunk lid, I think I'm going to let the dealer get it out
