How to remove spoiler?
i removed the 4 bolts that hold it on... its still stuck.... i have tried everything.... help!!!
|
use brute force!
|
It may be sealed at the holes, thats what I did with mine when it went on, I can't see why GM wouldn't want to seal it, seals keep out paint.
Be careful not to rip any paint off, carefully use brute force pretty much. |

so, stick chisel under it wrapped in cloth, and then PUSH!! |
don't do that... take a heat gun and heat it under the trunk lid... it is like a two sided tape that holds the wing on... once it's heated it should remove easier... just use a wide flat blade or paint scraper and slowly pull up on the wing and use the scraper to separate the tape from the truck lid

This is what I was thinking might help get it off. |
Were you able to get your factory spoiler off?

Heavy duty fishing line on a sawing motion

Agreed. Like 25lb test should do it. ("Test" is how fishing line strength is measured, the higher the number the stronger the test.) Also, use some heat. |

so i was considering taking off the spoiler also .. but i was considering not having one.. how would you get rid of the holes?
would you like out a plate underneith and then fill the holes with filling compound sand and paint blend? |

was that sarcastic or serious lol? cause i was considering doing so assuming i dont buy the wrx im looking at tomorrow:cool: |
find someone with the same color car that wants a spoiler and swap trunk lids... that would eb the cheapest and easiers route

i wouldnt think a little fab work and molding would be that hard lol |
it's not if you have the resources to do it... gotta paint it though and not many people can do that themselves... so they are stuck paying a shop to do it... which is more expensive that tradeing trunk lids.
