Are the small boot spoilers stuck on or bolted on?
Im trying to get a car at the moment but its got the small spoiler fitted and i want to fit the aero spoiler.
If they are bolted on are they bolted in the same place??

Here's a pic of the spoiler i'l be wanting to take off if all comes to plan

I had one on my first S15... but to be honest i didnt check it!
But from when i used to clean it it was on there bloody well... so wouldnt be suprised if it had a threw bolts...

nearly positive that its bolted on... looks to be the same spoiler as mine... five bolts and i think three are in the same possition for the aero spoiler... ie little bit of drilling and two holes to fill either side of what would be the brake light post

It might be glued on aswell though... i wanted to see if i could take the spoiler off 1day, removed all the bolts, but no joy. either its more stubborn than i was willing to force, or glued around the egdes etc...

Personally, i prefer the lip spoiler :smitten: to the aero, you should keep it :nod:

hehe, i was the same about the aero, but the lip spoiler grew on me really quickly! :)

If you remove it there'll probably be slight discolouration etc under it... also i've a funny feeling the glue used is green?? could be a mini nightmare to get right. if you want to avoid the whole cutting drilling filling and painting thing, you might be aswell to get a boot with the spoiler. I think i saw Pablo selling one

I can confirm that rust was present on a 2001 limited edition baby blue S15 with a lip spoiler which I had seen :nod:
