OP can you clarify what the COA says? I doubt it says ducktail delete.

Can you say neutered? I stand by my position that potential buyers won’t even look at this car without a whale tail on it. COA stating delete or not. The whale tail is one of the most iconic, important features of this car

He already fixed his first post, and remarked about it. ;)

Correct

It should be listed as an M470 option code.

Only to the blind, Shaun. :D

Don't be like Kanye. The world is big enough for both Kim and Taylor fans.

I saw that but would still like to know exact wording because spoiler delete for example can mean several different spoilers, front vs. rear.

Normally m470 is listed plural as spoilers.

Since I have owned this vehicle since 2013 I don't remember where I saw the 'Whale Tail delete', but I am inclined to believe that statement is true because it does not have the front spoiler as well. I know one of the original owners could have removed front and rear spoilers but I have my doubts that would have happened. If there is no documentation stating one or the other I may start to see what it will cost to accumulate the front and rear spoilers. An original rear spoiler I suspect is expensive, but if I can get an after market for a reasonable price I should be good to go.
