pedrosixfour Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 How do I remove stock spoiler please? Needs to come off for respray but sprayer can't work it out. Thanks:thanks: Not being funny, but that's a bad sign to begin with. There are two 10mm nuts, either side, accessed from within the bootlid panel. There is a locator either side as well, but I don't think they are a clip of any sort. The foam pad between the spoiler and the bootlid might put up a bit of a fight when separating the two.

Babe Posted August 23, 2018 Author Share Posted August 23, 2018 Thank you; I've used them a lot before, they're just stumped by the spoiler! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hold on... am I going to have to buy anything for him to put the spoiler back on? Anyone know part number if so? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Style Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 Yeah you might need new spoiler foam gaskets as the old ones can be beyond saveable once removed. There was a group buy on them not too long ago for 20 quid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pedrosixfour Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 I may be misleading you a bit on the foam. There is a protector on each side, R/H: 76873-14061 & L/H: 76874-14061, but they're not sticky as such, they just bond with the panels and can tear. I think mine had a few bits of adhesive padding added to the feet, by a previous owner, for whatever reason. The two locators I mentioned (76879-14040) are listed as clips, so bear that in mind too when trying to free the spoiler. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SupraTRD_MK4 Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 I would be more concerned with them not damaging the boot lid panel as they are quite expensive to replace. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rob_sri Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 As above two 10mm’s in each side under the plastic boot trim and 2 locating plastic clips on each side Some people buy rubber adhesive sheet and cut out new gaskets themselves would imagine this is much cheaper than Toyota and maybe more convenient [emoji51] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
