Been there when i was looking at fitting a spoiler
tried that & gave up (when i realised i didn't need to tale it off)

I removed the 2 screws,
took out the other 2 screws higher up that the parcel shelf is connected to & tried pulling at the bottom plastic bits too which only came out about 3mm

didn't want to pull any more in case i snapped someting off

if you find out how to remove it - post

nice! - we got the same spoiler!

i ended up gluing the centre leg (because i couldn't get the interior trim off)

also I only drilled 2 holes & put 2 bolts in (glued the rest) - i was paranoid about water getting in. Less holes.. less chance of water

I broke one of those flat things on the bottom of the plastic panal inside the hatch.. I gotta get around to fixing it.

I like how your yellow Ti has a colour matched plate trim. Is that stock on later models, or did you paint it? Mine is a 96 and that trim is black

hopefully no chance of water getting in with the rubber pad u place between the spoiler and the car...and the middle pillar is a pain to fix as it needs to go behind the motor and that took ages!! As for the yellow plate im afraid im being stupid and u lost me!! let me know what u mean and i'll advise!! cheers
