I want to return to a standard GT Turbo spoiler and am looking to remove the Tarmac spoiler that has been on the bootlid since God knows...

Currently the GT Turbo is in a lock-up so have no access to get a heatgun or any other appliance to have a go.
Ive tried a thin saw blade between the spoiler and bootlid but its stuck on with some strong stuff!
Brute force isnt coming up trumps either and has resulted in a couple of cracks on the top.

Any idea's would be appriciated :agree:

Not that i can see, ive disconnected the brakelight strip within the spoiler and then i think its just some heavy-duty stuff thats keeping it on!

I have my eye on a standard spoiler which is cheap as chips so wouldnt wanna go through the whole polava of getting a tailgate etc.

I'll have to examine for any bolts that may be holding it on
