Hey guys

Might sound simple enough, but i think there might be some type of glue on my rear spoiler

is there just the two screws at each side of the spoiler

My spoiler looks like the one is the photo exactly

( sorry for whoevas car it is, but i dont even have a pic of my car)

Just so you know what it looks like.

Im goin to eventually put on a lip wing, and just goin to plug up the holes for now.

So yeah jsut wanting to know the best way to remove it,

Will it rip up the paint?

Thanks

have you actually seen the glue that is holding the spoiler on, or are you just guessing that there MAY be glue. If there is not any glue just undo the 4 screws (on my lip spoiler there is 4, so i assume other spoilers are the same). But this means u will need to take the carpet off to get to the screws

From what i can remember (i havent actaully attempted it), there is actually 3 screws on each side. And its stuck on with some sikaflex. Just spray plenty of lube on it and run some dental floss underneath. i have been looking for a diy thread but havent located.

yeah im just guessing there is glue under there

just feels pretty firm on there, when have taken some of the screws out

i'll have to look more into it, see how it goes

either way im most probablly goin to need a bit of respraying of the bootage.

Thanks

when i took mine off there was i think three screws on each side, some light glueie stuff but not much but there are about 3 force plugs on each side as well which just have to use force to pull off but try pry it off close to the plugs (you will be able to feel about where they are when u start trying to take it off) with something that wont scratch or be really really carful with a screwdriver, it went all fine when i did it

Can someone tell me if it's illegal to remove your spoiler...

I asked my mechanic to remove it, and he said because it has a light on it that he couldnt...

I want to put a CF T-wing on it sometime soon(ish)

What are the requirements here?

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
