you can see all the bolts from under the trunk..i beleive 10mm's take all of those off and theres a plastic tab that needs to be taken off as well under there....then ALOT of 3M double sticky...take your time.

why would you want to remove it? The holes in the trunk are permanent.
You going to have to get a new trunk, or get some kind of plugs for the holes and that will look horrible.

no im painting the car candy red and with candy paint you have to make the paint lay evenly so it would be alot easier to take the spoiler off and other small parts for a easier job
