    how to remove front chin splitter / valance?

    Has anyone removed the black chin splitter / valance on a V10 R8? The left side of mine seems to be slightly sagging and seems like its not properly snapped in. From under the car I cannot see any fasteners. Just trying to figure out how to remove it carefully and snap it in properly. Im trying to figure out if its something simple or does the front bumper cover have to be removed? In not sure how this happened, it doesnt have a scratch on it. Help

    Bring it to dealer, it's a bitch to get off. Watched mine get done by autobody tech when I had my CF lip put on. Bumper had to come off to get at snaps and even then took a lot of strength to pull lip off
