Default Hello CL new owner of 2015 is 350 f sport

Hello CL members
Been lurking here for a while now but final made a move on a new 350 f sport nebula grey/ Rioja interior today.

Got an pretty good deal on a the car but almost didn't do it because the car had the rear lip spoiler on it and wasnt a huge fan of it. I still made the move because the color combo is what i wanted.

Question about the spoiler is that anyone know if the spoiler is just put on with adhesive or is it screwed on to the trunk?

Just wanted to see if it was possible to remove it in the future.

Will pick up the car mid March since im going on vacation this weekend and didnt want to drive the car in this crazy winter storms we are still having.

Thanks

Congrats!! I love the spoiler. It looks clean! I always get compliments on it actually. To answer your question, I'm pretty sure it's screwed on. Probably cheapest is to find someone with the same color and swap. I would just leave it on, it might grow on you!

The spoilers alway's seam to have the corner's sticking up from lack of or poor adhesive tape. I don't mind the looks of the spoiler but I looked at 5-10 cars in WA and all had corner's coming up.

Mine came with the rear spoiler also. I didn't really care for it at first but it has grown on me after a couple of months. I actually kinda like it now.

Congrats on the purchase. I love this car!

Congrats on your purchase! I actually bought a rear spoiler and now I'm waiting for it to come in. If you got the car at a dealership I would ask them if it's bolted or taped on.

I believe it's a few bolts and tape.
Looks good imho
It was cold the day I seen the cars and the corners were loosing grip..
Easy fix if ever needed

Congrats! I almost got the same color combination as well, but ended up with atomic silver exterior. Rear lip spoiled is a popular add-on. If you don't like it, at least you know there will be plenty of people to sell it to.
