need help taking off wing

Is there only 4 screws to unscrew? It still won't budge after taken all 4 off. Is there any trick to it?

There is some double sided tape as well as 2 clips in the wing. You have to use some muscle. The tape should pop off with some effort. Hope this helps.

assuming since you posted this thread in the evo forum, that you have an evo. why are you taking off your wing? if you don't like the big wing look, I am selling my stock spoiler off of my RA for a reasonable price. if you just don't want that big wing look, and if you want something nice and not aggressive looking then PM me.

There are only the four bolts holding it on. Just pull with a steady amount of force until you feel the adhesive start to give. I pulled from front to back on both sides equally. Just be careful not to scratch your paint.

Definitely use the fishing line..makes it a lot easier to remove. I took mine off and will be selling it off soon.
