Front Wing

Stu67 · 2nd August 2015, 08:30

Quick question; can you take a front wing off with minimal work, ie front bumper etc.
Background is that I want a minor paint defect corrected that really bugs me and to do a proper job will involve removing wing. If it's easy to do I'll do and send the wing to a paint shop

The wing is easy enough to remove, however if you are sending it to a paint shop, why not have it painted on the car, cuts down the risk of damage during refitting, or paint colour mismatches

Brian the bubbling is on the rear of the wing, I notice it when I've got the drivers door open. Mad I know, many people would just lean in and splash with wax,but I have OCD when it comes to my cars and otherwise the car is unmarked with just 45k mileage
