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.

a heat gun or blow dryer helps out a lot. I don't think I've ever seen an oem splitter from lexus. you have a pic?

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
