BMW won't fit my CF spoiler

I have ordered the CF spoiler from BMW for my 135i and they booked me in at the BMW bodyshop to have it fitted today. A couple of hours later I get a call to say they can't / won't fit it as they believe when they remover the standard spoiler on the boot it will take the paint off with it and I will need to have the whole boot resprayed.

They said they remove spoiler quite often and they rarely come off without damaging the pain.

What is the point of BMW Performance offering a part that BMW don't want to fit because of the risk of damage to the car ?

I was really looking forward to heving this fitted today and not I can't.

Anyone else had one fitted or knows how the old spoiler can be safely removed ?
