sorry i dont have any pics but i can tell you bout it though.. when you open your trunk there will be carpet on the bottom side of the trunk lid.. you can either pull the carpet off or just pull the sides down a little so it wont be in you way.. there will be 2 bolts per side of the spoiler.. take the nuts off of all 4 then your gonna need to heat it with a heat gun or hair dryer cuz there is some type of adhesive that holds the spoiler down too.. once you've got it heated up you'll then need some fishin string or somethin thin of that sort to pull under the spoiler pedistals to cut the adhesive while pryin up on the soiler at the same time.. you might want to get some one to help you so your not tryin to do all this by yourself.. then once you get the spoiler off you'll need some goo gone or any type of adhesive remover to get the rest of the adhesive off your trunk.. fillin the holes is up to you on how you want that to be done then it will need to be painted.. i believe that bout rounds it up.. if there is anythin i missed some one can fill it in for me of you'd like..

Yea they are all like that. Just unbolt it and heat up the inside of the trunk where the spoiler is and try pulling it of.. If not use fishing line and go gone

Wish my low-rise came off that easy. Had to do the whole heat up the adhesive and use fishing line thing like everybody else.
