How to take off the "wing" on a 2nd gen 4runner

OK so after I took off the 4 top screws, I find out there's something else holding that thing on. Anyone know how to take it off?

It might just feel stuck to it. It is held on with only the 4 screws.

Four screws. You taking it off to paint it? It actually serves a purpose. It keeps the back of your truck cleaner by directing the air down on the back. Without it air tends to swirl and you get a dirty back tailgate and window.

Sorry I shoulda been more specific. I didnt mean the wing itself, I meant the things that hold the wing to the truck.

I'd love to give it to you but my dad insists that I keep everything I take off/change so if I sell it (never), it'll be stock. Sorry.
