bonded and the valence also has a mounting kit - screws and blocks basically.
I'm not sure you'll get them off without damaging the car underneath.....

Not bothered about the car they will be coming off, its had a front end crash, cat B. So it wont be coming back onto the roads.
If the spoiler is bonded on. it will probs get damaged when removing it??
So how does the rear valance come off??

the rear valance comes off fairly easily need a torx screw driver tx 30. I think there are a couple of screws to take off the rear bumper underneath the car on each side and a couple on each of the rear wheel arches this will then allow you the tricky bit off separating the rear valance from the bumper. I found that getting a thin blade but wide screwdriver in the gap between the bumper and valance helped and pretty much pulled the thing off the car once the first clip has released its self its plain sailing. Another alternative is remove the full bumper and you will see all the clips that have o be removed 4 if I remember correctly. Good luck
