My Osir Telson became unglued >>
on all but the ends, so it sagged in the middle. So, not having anymore of the black glue that came with it, I squirted a line of clear silicone sealant in the crack, applied two clamps, and let dry overnight. When I checked in the morning before I left for work, it had rained and there was a watery white liquid in the crack, and I though the silicone had washed out. So, I took the clamps off and went on my way. When I got to my car after work, the silicone had dried hard, clear and messy from the rain water, in the position of the telson sagging. :-( It won't even budge! It's even on the paint of my spoiler. Any tips on removing it?

Heat gun on low (otherwise you'll affect the paint), Or...
remove and replace the rear spoiler. That black goo has held mine on there w/o issue, and at some elevated speeds. You must've had some contamination to cause the delamination.

Had the same problem. Mine became loose in the middle so I popped the telson off on the sides
where it was still glued. I removed the glue by using a heat gun. The paint came off with the glue, so I'm sanding that area down. I'm going to re-glue it using 3M 5200 Marine adhesive.
