I have the chrome spoiler. I got the screws out but there are those 2 clips. How do i pop it out? people said to use a screw driver and pry it out, i tried it with tape covered on the screw driver and it sort of scratched my car. not much but just a little. not noticeable unless you try to inspect it. after that scratch, i just stopped.

any help?

Don't remember how many screws there were but once you remove them pull the spoiler off from both ends. I think there's some double sided tape on it so you'll need to use a little effort when taking it off.

Open the trunk take off the liner and there 4 screws to take out then it's all muscle from there, it won't break si just give it a good pull

is it just tape or are there clips too? Its the chrome spoiler. and how do i pull as in what do i use to pull it out? i cant get my fingers in there and i tried using a flathead screw driver but it made a little scratch. I feel like its stuck on really good.

BTW i plasti dipped it black and now i just want to make it glossy black because plasti dip matte catches too much dirt.

There is no tape for the chrome spoiler.

Just tape around the the edges to prevent scratches. If you can't fit a flat head under there, pick up a panel removal tool similar to: Amazon.com: 5 pc. No-Scratch Tools for Removing Fastener & Molding: Automotive . You can usually pick them up at a local Lowes, Home Depot, or any Autozone, Pepboys, Advance Autoparts...You use the tool at both corners. Once you get it up enough to fit your fingers under there, just it a good tug and it comes off. You won't break it. And if you do, that just gives you a reason to get the spoiler

thanks everyone! I yanked and yanked and yanked and it finally came off!

this is the recommended method from the installation guide for the oem spoiler, on how to remove the chrome piece. tape the edges, and then use flat "removal tool" to push against the trunk.. Makes you worry when pushing it
