Rear spoiler removal

This site may earn commission on affiliate links.
We want to try and foil the rear spoiler to give some more accents to the roadster.

Can anyone post how - if possible at all - to remove the rear spoiler. Is it just screwed on from left/right of the trunk?

Thanks...

Must be a way somehow...

So I took a look at this today. The spoiler is attached to the body via four bolts which can be accessed from the trunk lid when opened. There are also four rubber spacers between the spoiler and the rest of the carbody/trunk; I expect the spoiler can be easily removed without damaging the paint. Good luck.

Removing and fixing my rear spoiler was on my list for a long time.
The spoiler was cracked on both sides and everytime I closed the trunk I would see and hear the cracks.
I found out that the bolts, spacers and nuts in the spoiler were rusting a lot.
I think the cracks started when the spoiler was tightened to much.
Maybe in combination with rain/ frost.
Rubber and steel spacers were used.
After glueing the nuts back in the spoiler I only used rubber spacers putting the spoiler back on.
Not the nicest fix, but fine for now.
Hereby some pictures:
