Remove mounting bolt covers?

1 Attachment(s)

I don't want to destroy anything on my donor wing so I wanted to ask forum members on how to "Remove the mounting bolt covers from both sides
of the rear spoiler." Sounds easy in the manual but hey.. I have tried..
Anyone done this?

See picture. Obviously the pic have them already taken off..

Well I am going to paint the wing.. Need to get it off it's mountings.. I got the whole liftgate disassembled. That was easy but those covers are a pain in the !%$... :D

Oh that is right you removed the SRT hatch and wing and putting on the n/a hatch and wing. I am not sure how the cover comes off. If there is no fasteners then it probably snaps on.

Would be great if you just went and looked at it. 4 eyes better than just two :D
I have a donor tailgate which I disassembled today. Went nice and easy. Find some "rust, erosion" close to the motor so I hope it is still working. Otherwise I am in need of buying a new one. 05161797AA .. Any guesses were to find one, and for how much?
The donor liftgate was full of sand.. I wonder what happend. I have the VIN if anyone interested to see if it was their car. :D Have you been driving in the desert? :D

It looks like that snap on from the bottom edge. Try to carefully pry with a small screw driver blade.
