My spoiler is about to fly off...
I have this rear spoiler, it came on my car so I'm not sure which brand it is:
whatever was holding it down is not doing such a good job anymore, almost looks like some kind of glue in spots across it....
what can I use to secure it? epoxy from home depot? I would rather just take it off altogether but I know it would leave some nasty marks behind...
thanks for any info....

Drives Slowly
To get the spoiler off, double up a piece of dental floss and in a back and forth motion saw it off from the rear deck. Then, clean the rear deck with Goo-Be-Gone and remove any adhesive tape from the spoiler. Prep the deck with a rubbing alcohol, apply some good 3M, double-sided adhesive tape to the deck and re-seat the spoiler.
