Default Carbon Fiber Rear Spoiler Install

Anyone installed the Seibon Carbon Fiber Rear Spoiler? I ordered mine and planning the install. If you did, how hard of an install was it. Do you have a “How To”? Beside the two bolts that I see under the trunk cover, is there glue holding the OEM spoiler in place.

It was easy and yes, direct bolt on. The hardest part was removing the OEM spoiler.

No, I just worked it out and used a plastic panel prying tool with a micro fabric towel wrapped around it. My car was pretty new so the two sided tape was not too stuck to the trunk and the OEM spoiler so one side of the tape or the other gave with just a little force.
