I'll ask now rather than later as I'm sure others might be wondering how do you remove the OEM spoiler top cap ? How do you pop out the rivets ? Is there foam or adhesive that you have to break the bond of ?

There are a lot of online tutorials on removing the spoiler lip (which is required when removing the rear bumper.) Basically you need to remove the three expanding trim plugs. This requires driving out the pin in the center of each plug till it falls into the center channel. Then the plugs can be pried out. To retrieve the plugs you will need to remove the spoiler by removing the two long bolts that are exposed when you remove the lip. Then squeeze the tabs on the black plastic cover on one side of the spoiler so that you can remove it and tilt the spoiler till the plugs fall out. Putting the lip back on is the opposite. Seat the trim fasteners (being careful to squeeze the three arms so they all go back in the hole, then push the plug back into the hole and tap it gently till it is flush with the plastic fastener.)
