Default replace spoiler on GS

Does anyone have procedure for replacing the rear spoiler on a GS? GM PN: 19120281
Does OE spoiler have double sided tape holding it down?
I am hoping that it can be replaced without removing the bumper cover.
Thanks

My car has the OE full length spoiler, RPO code T43. it has a few scratches and I am wanting to replace it. I have identified GM PN: 19120281, but based on the web pictures it does not appear to be the full length spoiler. Does anyone know the part number for the full length spoiler that is RPO Code T43?

Usually they use both bolts and tape.

Thank you, I got it from CorvetteMods, took a while to get it as I did ordered the tail lights, painted door handles and painted fender badges at the same time. But it was a good choice for me, It is Satin finished and matches the other trim very well.

Post up a picture of the spoiler so we know exactly what it is.

The spoiler part number 19120281 is the small, standard spoiler which incorporates the center mounted stop lamp.

The full width spoiler typically was sold as an accessory by GM and came finished in the body color of your choice.
It may have been discontinued in colors due to vehicle age, and may be available by some aftermarket sources such as forum vendors here.

You may want to contact Gene or Patrick at www.cultragfactoryparts.com (forum vendor too) to see if the GM version is available, and for pricing.

It's gotten to the point that the GM full width 'Racing' (AKA: Ron Fellows) rear spoiler in any of the various colors is no longer available ... end of the road for the genuine GM version

If you want that design, you will need to go aftermarket

BTW .... Here is that full width 'Racing' spoiler that came standard from the factory on the 2007 "Ron Fellows Edition" Z06:

GM made 300 of these cars for 2007

RON FELLOWS ALMS GT1 CHAMPION EDITION Z06 PACKAGE: Includes red console, lower door trim and instrument panels, red leather armrest with crossed flags each individually signed and numbered by Ron Fellows, tech patterned center trim plate, body-color outside door handles, full width body-color racing spoiler, special fender graphics, windshield banner and a certificate of Z33 authenticity ... Includes (10U) Artic White exterior color, (023) Ebony with Red accents interior and (Q76) 18″ x 9.5″ front and 19″ x 12″ rear Z06 chromed aluminum wheels.

Basically like the ZR1 style rear spoiler (in the photo below) ..... but does not narrow down in the top center area of the spoiler like the ZR1 spoiler does in the photo below:

If you purchase that unpainted genuine GM ZR1 rear spoiler from a dealership (or online GM parts supplier), it is going to cost you $656 plus $38 shipping. The GM P/N is 19256906

https://www.gmpartsdirect.co/oem-par...oiler-19256906

You can get an unpainted aftermarket ZR1 spoiler that will look identical and fit perfectly from Extreme Online Store for $170 with free shipping. It also includes the mounting hardware.
