Default Removing Ground Effects

Couple questions:
Can ground effects be removed easily?
Do they leave ugly marks?
Anything else I should know about a car with ground effects that I want to remove?

couple answers:
No, not easily.
Yes, leave rivets and alot of holes!
Expect to pay alot in body work to have the holes filled and repainted. I thought about doing this and decided not to since it was going to cost $1000 just to have the four holes caused by the spoiler filled and repainted.

Yeah it is a little time consuming and it does leave holes, but they are not very noticeable. I took the 3 piece spoiler of and got some round vinyl stickers and painted them to match to cover the holes, it is not perfect but it looks better than it did with the body kit. It just looks better for know, until I find the time to fill them and paint it.
