Can I remove that one and install the bigger one?

Yes. It's easy enough to do but removing the original one takes time. Fishing line or floss works well.
You need to spend time to clean off the residue left behind.
The spoiler comes with a little 3m tape, that's not going to hold the spoiler on the trunk lid.
Use Betalink to adhere the pro spoiler but be careful cause it makes a mess if you put too much and is a pain to remove. Once it's on, use some painters tape to keep the spoiler in place overnight.
It took me probably 2.5 - 3 hours of hands on time, most of which was spent removing the adhesive.
Warning - the old spoiler once removed will have etched the paint. It's not super visible but it's there. The new spoiler doesn't sit on top of where the old spoiler was so it will be visible.
