Yo guys. Got a flame red (supposedly!) sport but the rear spoilers pink and laquer is peeling off at an alarming rate.

Got another one lined up in good nick paint wise but being a complete notice at this stuff, how hard is it to remove and refit a new spoiler?

I assume they bolt on aswell as stick on, if so - what sort of sticky pads should I get? 1mm ones for number plates any good for this kinda thing or what?

Any pointers/tips much appreciated.

why do you need tigerseal?

and dave their 4 bolts if you look 1 each end at the bottom and 1 each corner at the top, their 8mm i think

edit - 2 screws that hold it to the plastic under neath aswell

When I fitted mine I used trim repair tape from Halfords, just for added stickyness

you'll need something sticky imo, just bolting it will have it lifting in the centre

its 4 bolts and 3 lines of double sided tape that hold the outer part of the spoiler to the tailgate sl as long as the bolts come off ok then no tigerseal will be needed
