HI Guys,

Thanks for the replies - it was 12 bolts - there are two hidden under the rubber boot stops - bl**dy Japanese hiding things ! ha ha

broke the two white clips - but its off.

Only downside was the foster lad dropped it when lifting it off, and chipped the boot lid !!!! GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

Flew to halfrauds - got touch up pot made up, came back, primed, and waiting till tomorrow to see if I can get it blended with an ear bud!

Gotta say, did a colour test on the bottom of the spoiler, and the colour match is 100% - £9.99 for a pot made up in 5mins! Guy was surprised though as apparently Paint code 02c (Mica blue) has 60% pearl in it - he said he hasn't done a paint mix with that amount of pearl ever! does match 100% though so he did a good job - tomorrow ill see if I can do it justice! Trouble is, I know its gonna be there - but its only about 1cm long, and if I tried filler, and sanding e.t.c. id make it more of a mess.

Thanks for all the help with the spoiler removal though.

Ordered new rubber washes, got new metal washers, and got 1cm wide x 5mm thick one sided waterproof draught excluder foam strip coming to re-seal the whole thing.

Can't decide wether to use silicone sealant too - or just stick with the above.
