Removing real spoiler
Removing real spoiler
Is there a trick to doing this? I checked the service doc just in case, but it is pretty straight forward.
Remove the 4 nuts from the bolts, pull the spoiler off.
Except mine won't budge. All 4 nuts are off, and it still firmly planted. It looks like the nuts thread through a plastic washer on the other side, and I don't have a driver or socket small enough to try and take the bolts out.
Any suggestions? I'm hesitant to just start pulling.
edit -- I just used a 5/32 bit to remove the bolts themselves. The bolts AND nuts are off, yet the spoiler will not lift off.

Get some fishline and pull it through gap between the spoiler and decklid. ****Don't pull off**** Be careful or you'll take some paint with you. It's stuck onto the decklid with 3m tape.
AHA! ADHESIVE PADS! Plastic putty knife and 106 out fixed that.
Did you use some isopropyl to remove the left over adhesive residue, or did you just leave it on there? A GT500 spoiler is going where this used to be. I have quite a bit of the pad left on the decklid.
