Default Removing stock spoiler?

I have a 1999 Black Prelude SH and it came with a rear spoiler that I really dont care for. I wanted to take it off but im not sure how and im not sure how bad the holes will be once it's off.

Well, yes, you will have 4 holes in your deck lid to deal with, along with discoloration where the spoiler was stuck to the lid as well. You may also actually pull the paint, damage the metal or spoiler, and have some serious glue issues. The double sided pad of adhesive used to seal the spoiler to the deck lid and make it a water proof seal is serious glue. Industrial strength, desiged to last forever in temperature extremes and all sorts of water and snow. In other words, once the spoiler is on, it's on. Unless you don't mind stripping the decklid, bondo-ing the screw holes, and repainting it.
