How to take kit off for winter?

ok, so as winter approaches i need to take my kit off in preperation for the snow and all. i an do the front and sides, but i am wndering about the rear. i have g5 rear and it is on with double sided tape and 2 mounting screws on each side. i was talking to HUSTLE and he said if i take the rear off, it will not be easy and F-up my rear bumper. anyone have any suggestions or know what to do? thanks.

i took my xenon rear lip off last winter. it came off no prob, then again the double stick tape was already unsecured in some sections (crappy fitment). the rest of the tape residue wasnt that hard to take off, i just used water and a rag.

just drive over a speed bump really fast and drag that hoe off. thats what ill be doing for my side skirts sincethey are fiberglassed on.haha. But you should be ok if youjust unscrew the screws and slowly pull it off. Then just get some bug and tar remover togetthe residue off.
