Yes, its partly perforated so you effectively you have to rip the perforated square out.  It ok thought, slots back in place like never touched

I have noticed a bit of water in mine which dries out when warmer weather - TBH I think I would rather leave it alone that have a bodged job or replacement spoiler which doesnt match or is painted poorly.

I've had this in mine too (only in winter & spring) add Autumn and that most of the year.



Had it repaired a couple of weeks ago by the dealer. No damage to the car.  :wink:

No "wetness" since :afro:
