Angry How do you remove R1 rear spoiler?

The two front tabs seem to be glued down or something. I'm sure it's gonna rip off the tabs when I pull it off. I dont' see any screws from the bottom of the hatch, except for the 4 outside screws! Am I doing something wrong? It won't pull off!

the factory service manuel shows a total of 8 screws holding the spoiler on 2 on each pedestal. Hopefuly that was som help to you. They might have some kind of adhesive also.

Each of the two middle arms have 3 screws each. Total of 10 screws for the R1 wing that hold it down.

After unscrewing these, the wing will stick a little as adhesive padding is lined between the wing and the hatch for seal it.

Since mine is a base model, it looks like the dealer put it on. Only 4 screws with 4 plastic pegs. They didn't do too great of a job. I'm gonna have to get body work done to fill in the holes that the 99 spec spoiler doesn't cover.
