Default Question about removing Stillen front splitter...

Wondering if anyone has removed their Stillen front splitter after installing using adhesion promoter during the install. I realize it's a pretty straightforward process, but it would be helpful to hear from someone with actual experience doing this to see how difficult it was to remove all the tape residue, etc. If you have experience with a similar process but not necessarily a Stillen part, this could still be helpful...

I just ordered the Stillen rear diffuser and I'm thinking that I want to paint it gloss black before I install it. If I go this route, I need to remove the splitter so that I can paint it gloss black to match the diffuser. Any feedback is appreciated!

To remove tape reside just use a heat gun or a hair dyer and heat it up a bit. You can then just rub it off with your finger. Or GOO Gone will work
