there are 3 holes drilled on the turnk. so if you removed it, those 3 holes will be exposed, unfortunately.

Btw, i like the lip spoiler and i think they look really good.

You might not have to. There's a whole lot of people who believe in just sticking them on with double-sided tape.

I'm pretty sure its screwed on, but I'll have a look when I pick up the car.

Define easy? If you can weld, do body work, and paint then it's a piece of cake. Like the other have said there will be three holes to fill and paint. We have the lip on our silver car and I think it adds a nice touch to the back. It will grow on you.

You may want to post in your area for someone that wants the spoiler and you can swap trunk lids. Not a big deal.
