Has anyone removed the vented wing from their corolla hatchback?
My 2025 corolla hatchback came with the vented wing on the back. I got tired of how it looks and I want to remove it now. Theres videos of people adding the vented wing to their corolla on YouTube but none that remove it as it’s supposed to be a permanent feature once installed.
The wing is held on by three nuts which can be accessed and removed, 3M adhesive which I am not super worried about as I think I can use some string to kinda cake slice my way trough it, and two plastic clips which are my biggest concern.
If the clips were accessible, it might be possible to clamp them with something so that they fit back trough the holes that they were clipped into but to access them the whole interior plastic hatch panel has to be removed along with the pistons that push the hatch up because they attach to the same one piece.
It might be possible to just brute force pull out the spoiler with the clips in but I am not sure if that is possible to do without breaking the plastic spoiler that the wing mounts to. Has anyone removed their vented wing? What’s the right way to go about it?
