Dirt under the rear spoiler
........Here's a little tip and something to be aware of. We wash our
Cars whenever we can but some areas can get neglected ...like Underneath the rear spoiler.........
I removed my rear spoiler yesterday and my suspicions were correct. There was plenty of dirt and polish build up. So after removing the spoiler; I brushed off the loose stuff and then used a wet rag and some cleaner ( Meguires ) and after it was dry; I applied a light coat of polish and then I reinstalled the spoiler. I can only assume that the surf board type of spoilers has a simular procedure.
Just thought I would pass this along to everyone.

I see a bunch of those helicopter bud things always stuck around/under my spoiler also but never tried removing it! I'm guessing there isn't an adhesive also under the spoiler. I hope!

no adhesive
Also be sure to disconnect your trunk light. Could run your battery down ?
