I need to remove my spoiler to sort some rust that has started to show where the spoiler has rubbed the boot paintwork.
The car is a 2000 Corsa 1.6 Sport.
I can see two nuts at the bottom and two at the top but also two torx screws in the middle of it at the top.
How do they come off, are they bonded on as well as screwed?
Thanks

no it has a plastic plate thats fitted to the top of the tailgate that holds it into place. (i think its to stop vibrations etc) the spoiler will just lift off from it

well theres 6 bolts aswell as the torx ones. Theres 3 up each side of the tailgate on the inside. Make sure u undo all of these, or they will be easily broken off leaving a rattly spoiler!
