Look here:

This will show you how it's done. Instead of the "special tool" they use, you can do this with a large set of channel lock pliars. Wear gloves, eye protection and have your disability insurance paid up.

HD springs come with the OEM spoilers.

Use Vice Grips over channel locks. Less chance of getting a trunk spring in the eye.

The OEM tool works the best

They come with Honda OEM trunk lips and spoilers. You don't really need the heavy duty ones. Lots of people put the lips and spoilers on and don't use the included HD springs. If you must have them, try asking the dealer parts guy or post up in the WTB forum to see if someone will sell you theirs.
