hi,

can someone tell me what is securing the spoiler on an estate? is it any screws or is it held with some sort of seal? I would like to take one off a salvage car.

many thanks

Lots of glue any screws will be obvious from underneath with the tailgate open

Some Irmscher ones have locating pins in the top corners, depends who fitted it really

If you can take the tailgate away, and heat it with a hairdrier or similar to soften the adhesive, can be lifted off with care, but they can snap. If cutting off with a wire saw, be very careful as they are also really easy to saw through

When it comes to refitting, use...

Mine is held on with sealant and either 4  bolts which are under the trim and covered with coloured sticky patches. Bolt on each end and 2 more towards the centrer. Sealant on mine want that hard to remove.
