sorry to thread jack, but its not far off topic.
the black lining on the trunk are held by clips and this black casing that houses the escape handle latch thing (what are they called anyway)
i managed to get all the clips off.. which was easy.. but I just cant seem to get the black casing off. How do you do it?

it like snaps off towards the bottom of the trunk. So if it's up, pull it towards you. It's kind of a pain in the ***. I was literally inches from cutting it, but then it came to me.

So I just received the spoiler in the mail today and I'm really excited. When I opened it up the 3m tape seems to already be attached to the spoiler. You guys thing I can just throw it on there without drilling?

If you plan to keep the spoiler forever, I suggest you use the industrial "bond" instead. Industrial bond stick like magnets.

I bought mine (tungsten pearl) from e-bay and the fitment and color was almost perfect. the total including shpping came to $110. I installed it using extra 3M tape to cover the area where it wasnt covered with double sided tape. its been over a year and is still flush with no gaps.
