Double sided tape.
Re-attach the bolts about half way to prevent the wing popping off and scratching the bootlid after the next step.
Push up on the spoiler (away from the bootlid) and with the other hand slide a thin stencil knife around the edge to slice the tape, presto!
Use metho, or any other sort of adhesive remover to remove the left over double sided tape residue

Awesome thanks ill try that tonight.

I ended up snapping the middle plastic clamps on will that cause a problem? Also it's still really stiff only lifting up like 5mm?

5mm is all you need, a Stencil knife is nice and thin, use that to trim the double sided tape

Finally got it off last night. But left shit loads of tape on the and two ugly spots on my boot. Tried to clean the tape off got half of it off gonna do the rest tonight. Now gotta start thinking about what I'm gonna do about the holes any ideas?

If you really don't plan on putting another wing on, have the holes welded over and the boot resprayed. Do not have them fibreglassed as they will crack over time.

Short term, put a sticker over the top to stop water seeping it, and go to bunnings or the likes and get a rubber grommet large enough to plug the hole tightly.
