How to safe remove rear spoiler/3m double side tape?

I have regular AMG style rear trunk spoiler installed by using 1/2" 3M double side tape (3 strips all the way across)
If I want to change to Brabus 3 piece style spoiler, is there anything I need to watch out for when removing old spoiler??
I am worried about if I force out the old piece, the paint job on the trunk might get ruined?

just heat it up with a blow dryer or heat gun, and run fishing line or dental floss through the tape. Then to remove the acess glue use goo gone or prep saul.
