Can you be more specific? Do you mean a picture of a removed OEM spoiler?

Default ahh... not gonna try to F with that gorilla glue Jeff...!>>>

I'm considering adding a wing "extension" and screwing it onto the OEM spoiler, without the glue for future removal!

Default What is left behind when you strip it? 4 bolt holes and two locating holes? How bad do you damage

the paint when removing it? Is it relatively "clean" like debadging?
