glue, and lots of it. Try a hair dryer to soften the glue and cheese wire underneath the spoiler to pull it off.

Yes, might be easier to unbolt the whole boot and take it home, then take your time when removing it, espeically if you want the spoiler in good nick  :y

Could be expensive re-painting it, i'd take the boot off, take it home and spend time removing the spoiler, rather than rushing it in a scrappy

Dont need to repaint it,as i only want the spoiler to sell,but also could sell the lid on aswell.
