wingless

I was wondering if someone could tell me how to take off the rear spoiler. Its an aftermarket which was put on before I received it and im guessing the clearcoat (or whatever its called) is starting to flake off and its making it look horrible. Could someone help me out.

Is there a way to fill the holes?

yeah take it to a body shop. you might as well just get the wing clear coated again unless you really don't like it.

Its not that I don't like it, its just that the wing doesn't look good IMO and id rather go wingless.

I'd repaint it... you'll hate the holes.. they don't look good plugged. If you try and get the holes welded to make them disappear..it will prob cost you more than getting the spoiler painted..
