I have the special tool, but have found that what works just as well is a flat ended punch with the right sized shaft to fit into the hole in the piston. Going one size smaller let's you get some angle on the punch to avoid scratching either the wing or decklid. Make sure to lift the spoiler all the way up and then wedge some pillows or clean rags between the two parts to get as much working room as possible. Tape both the bottom of the upper wing and top of the lower deck-lid to protect the paint from whichever tool you decide to use.
