I would like to remove the splitter on my Virage to get it touched up so wondered if anyone had removed one from a Virage or facelift DB9?

I took the bolts off on the underside of the leading edge but it didn't seem to want to budge. Judging by the parts manual there is a hidden bolt at either end so, if there are actually some, what is the best way to get to them?

It looks like there might be some tabs as well so I didn't want to just tug and break something!

Thanks for that, Yes, that is how I discovered the two hidden bolts.

It is not obvious what needs to come off to get to them though. I am assuming the wheel arch liner but, judging by videos I have watched the airboxes are down near there so may be in the way.

I am sure it isn't a hard job but I don't want to jack the car up and remove the wheels and wheel arch liners if it isn't actually necessary.
