Lightbulb Front Middle Spoiler Replacement

Hello folks,

This is my first post after countless hours of research and coming up empty. I purchased a replacement carbon fiber front middle spoiler for our GTS sport design front bumper, Im just looking to get advise on how to remove the OEM partÉ do I need to remove the bumper as a wholeÉ if someone can give me step by steps would be really helpful. Thanks in advance.

so I bit the bullet on this and "Winged it", it ended up being fairly easy. steps as follows:

Step1: Remove the rubber splash guard in the bottom of the bumper. has a torx screw retainer on each end then basically pop off slowly as the ridge alternate but you can pull down with some force and it will come off.

Step 2: start pulling the middle spoiler from the bottom towards you or the front of the car on an angle going up, this will release the clip the grips on the top side. you will have to use some force but be careful not to break anything. this should remove the middle spoiler.

Step 3: clean the area and then slide in the replacement part and ensure the bottom tabs go inside the lower bumper cover.

Step 4: attach the rubber splash guard and you are done.

I did this just over a month ago. Super easy to do thankfully.
