Aero Lip Removal with Betalink

I installed my aero front lip on my e92 335i following the bmw instructions and using beta link. The only problem is the lip has gone through hell and is pretty destroyed so I was wondering if there was anyway of removing and installing a new one or if its a PITA to get the beta link off.

Betalink does not come off. If you get it off you will be repairing 2 pieces of the car. Refinish the lip on the car.

I can't, there are pieces of the lip missing, the thing looks like it was blown up from the inside. Unless I'm gonna pile some bondo on it, it can't be repaired.

Fishing line.
Next time use 3M Urethane windshield adhesive.
Almost as strong as betalink but you can get it off with some work.

Betalink is a PITA to get off and clean off. Fishing line and heat will take the lip off at least.
