Default Roof Spoiler UNINSTALL, PLS HELP

Okay Guys, I am trying to uninstall my roof spoiler but are having difficulties. First of all, I opened my tail gate and pop out the two black piece of rubber on the top corners. I saw the bolt and removed the bolts as well for both sides. However, the spoiler doesn't come over, why the hell is that? Pls help. Thanx.

I put mine on last year...exact same as the factory using four bolts. I believe on both sides there is a somewhat circular piece of sticky foam that circles the bolt pattern to form a water seal. This is probably what is preventing the spoiler from just falling off. See if yours appears to have foam pads on the corners and if it does you will probably have to tug on the spoiler to break the seal. There should not be any other mounting bolts.
