Robban This was painful but manageable!

Steps are straightforward:

Used this thread as guidance: Thanks to 3002 tii for his write up - http://www.1addicts.com/forums/showthread.php?t=889437

1. Let the car sit in the sun a while to get the glue heated.

2. Dental floss did the trick, just get it under the corner and start goinn back and forward until you get from one corner to the other.

3. Use 3M Adhesive Remover, got a can at Autozone.

4. Patience, patience, patience.. spray and use some plastic to remove by areas. I wasn't able to just roll it up with my finger.. it was really stuck on there. I had some of those Bondo plastic applicators and just took my time to go by parts.

5. Repeat application of the remover and continue to pry away. It will take multiple applications and cleanup but you will get it all out eventually.

6. Isopropyl alcohol with cotton balls to remove final residue.

7. Wash the car at the end.

I will install the new spoiler tomorrow since I am heading out soon and I want to do it while the car is hot.







Color matches nicely!
