After a minor coming together with the garage wall I need to replace the near side wing, MY97, any instructions or advise would be appreciated.

Cheers,

From: Leeds - It was 562.4bhp@28psi on Optimax, How much closer to 600 with race fuel and a bigger turbo?

I try... (Blushes)

Easy... remove front bumper and lights, inner wheel arch... there are some 11m bolts behind the light... obvious... then one under the trim on the sill.. possibly one behind the inner wheel arch and then if you park the car somewhere where you can open the door fully you will be able to get at the three in the door gap...

Bolt the new on, taking care to line it up at the bottom of the A- post and with the door... and the gap at the front of the bonnet... theres not much room for adjustment....

Hope that makes sense..
