    Mint wings, do they exist?!

    As above, my front wing is getting a little worse for wear now and I really want to change it as it's letting the car down. Is there such thing as a rust free drivers side 850 wing?!

    I can always get it repainted, but if anyone has one in this colour (unsure which silver it actually is), I will pay good money for it!


    (This is definitely its better side)

    Ta,
    Ben.

    I picked up a couple last year, put one on the 850r it was mint and rust free, I undersealed the inside when I did it to prevent anything later on

    To get a spotless, perfect, mint, mint one is a near on impossible task. I managed to get one for my 850 from a car that had a front end, got repaired with gen parts, then the engine went bang, so the car sat for a long time with a new front end on it. They're out there, but it's not an easy find.
