Question regarding removal of rear spoiler (non LS)

For those that have removed the rear deck lid spoiler on the street Boss, ( non LS);

How is the original spoiler attached?
Screws?
Double back tape? ( I hope not.)
How dificult was the removal?

Thanks

Unfortunately both screws and 3M tape.

I've not removed mine but have questioned a few that have. They suggest taping the deck lid off so as not to scratch it and using heavy string or fishing line to saw the tape apart.

Good luck.

Yes four bolts and double sided tape. Find some heavy nylon string like in my photo below and it will make the removal job a lot easier. Be sure to apply blue tape around the spoiler so you don't scratch the paint. The type of string flattens out and makes like a saw cutting through the tape. It took me five minutes to remove mine once the four bolts were removed.

i pulled one off my old 10. i used the highest test fishing line i could find to cut the tape. then get yourself some 3m adhesive remover and get the tape goo off. goo gone isn't the same.
