The issue with removing the stock wing, once u remove the 4 bolts, is that not only is it held.down by some pretty intense double sided tape but it also has 7 huge clips!!!

Thanks! Luckily for me, my bodyman/custom car shop guy lives next door to me. Now that you shown me this I won't take the old one off without him. He's been a Z fan for years and kind of informally specializes in them. I'm hoping he'll have a trick up his sleeve to get this off in one piece. He's already got a trick for the headlights I haven't seen before to open them up with an infra-red light. Hopefully he has one for the spoiler!

Don't forget, depending on which wing go with.... U will have 2-4 holes that will need to be filled. That's only the front. There will be 5 additional holes on top, but most wings cover this. I still recommend filling them to prevent water entering the hatch....

Its possible to remove the stock spoiler intact, but very very difficult.

In for more pics of that wing!

The funny things is that with all 9 pre- holes, not one out of 4 bolts on the new wing lined up with the old ones
