Default Front fender splitter

I was wondering if the front fender splitters were easy to remove? Is it just screws in the wheel well and tabs or is there more to it? I scraped one side today in a parking lot and was wondering whether to touch up paint or just remove them as I got the car used and they were added on by the original owner and I don't really care for them. Thanks in advance

depends on which splitters they are. most are attached by a screw/bolt or two and maybe some adhesive. not much too it.

I'm just guessing because the original owner worked for Lexus and everything he added seemed to come through them which I've slowly been returning to stock. I'll take a look at how it's held on when I'm finished work or I can always just touch up paint it and forget about it! Thanks for the responses
