removing GTA rear spoiler

Does removing the rear spoiler leave any damage or flaws on the Truck lid?

thanks.

The only flaws will be the holes in the deck lid where the spoiler mounted to it. There will also be clips alonge the hatch window that will be visible .

Just outta curiosity, are you replacing the spoiler with something else or just removing it?

Removing it completely. I don't like the spoiler look. The Clean Trunk lid looks better in my opinion.

That's what mine looks like.



I kinda like the look. But, mine'll eventually have the fourth-gen style wraparound wing on it, along with the Ram Air II hood.

Did you guys have to fix the holes in the Trunk lid, and how did you do this? I don't see any holes.
