Ok, I have a new Hatch-looking wing. I went to put it on tonight, but there was a little snag... I can't get the old wing off. I think it's glued or something. Has anybody hadthis happen? Do I just pry it off as gently as possible, or will it take the paint with it,,,, which is a VERY bad idea. HELP!!!

Jon

Haha...its funny that you just asked this question because i just took my spoiler off two days ago. Ya that stuff is a bitch but you just have to pull slowly and hardly (sorry if that sounds like im a three year old). IT will slowly just start to unstick and then in an instand it will pull free..but watch it cause i punched myself in teh nose when it came free and gave myself a bloody nose..haha...but anyways..ya just do that and then you'll probably have alot of the black rubber stuff that was sealing it to the car. Just get some goof off or just plain soap and water and go to town rubbing it off. If you use the friction of your hands it will get most of the big pieces off..but then you'll need some sort of cleaner to get the rest off. It take about half an hour to get that stuff off..so be pacient. Good luck.
