O/S Wing removal
#1
Hi,

Im replacing a rotted O/S MKI wing.

Ive had an exploratory look and it seems reasonably straight forward BUT Im unsure of whats going on with where the bumper bolts to the wing and the wing to the inner wing - not helped by the fact that the bolts / fixings are rusted and just turning.

Any other tips for removal would also be much appreciated. Im a bit concerned about getting half way through and coming across something that stops me in my tracks.

Thanks.

I replaced mine and you have to drop that side of the bumper down.

The bolts on the top and behind the wheel arch are easy enough but the front is riveted. I had to drill them out and find some bolts to replace them with after.
