How hard id it to remove the O/S Wing ?

Went to the car today and the front offseide of the bumper looked like it was flapping in the wind :cry:

On further investigation the wing has rotted away where it comes down behind the top of the bumper, so theres nothing to hold the end of the bumper now.

Is it a major job to change the wing ?

Cheers Guys

hi cameron from what i remember

its easier with wheel off
undo wheel liner on bumper and take mud guard off
undo 3 or 4 bolts on wing in engine bay
undo a bolt in door shut near wing mirror
undoa bolt half way down wing inside wheel arch
take out indicator
i think i loosened front panel and may have taken headlamp out i cant remember it was ages ago now and taken bumper off to save the weight of it hanging down at one side
and i think theres a bolt behind corner of bumper
and theres a bolt on a small bracket that ties into engine bay under headlamp

you should have no probs being a mechanic :)

i might have missed sumthin but its easy to do,hope this helps
