Then just reapply the coating to the trunk/spoiler after the new one has been installed.
Definitely what I suggest, as well.

Same here. I purchased an OEM carbon thumbnail spoiler for my M4 from a forum member, and at the time my car was at the detailer. When I got the car back, the detailer wants to see the car back after 2-3 weeks to make sure there are no issues with the PPF install.

At that time, they installed my rear carbon spoiler for me, since they would have put the black painted spoiler, back on, anyway. They removed the spoiler to PPF my trunk in one piece. Then also PPFd the carbon spoiler, and installed it, for me, over the trunk PPF. It came out, perfect.
