Underbody sealing wings
 
Hi all,

I've just bought another pair of front wings for my bugeye sti (got a small dent in one of the originals).

Before fitting, I was thinking of coating the whole inside of the wings in under body sealer to protect them from the Scottish Winters...
Any one got any suggestions of a specific brand to go for.

I've never done this before but I'm assuming I can just brush the stuff on like regular paint)...

Does anyone have any advice or links to a guide for removing and refitting the wings?

Many thanks:)

Removing the wings are a doddle fella, just make sure you lube the hell out of the nut that sits behind the side skirt. I managed to shear both of mine :(

Is isn't undersell mine but I did give it a coat of bilt hammer rust treatment t to protect it for the future.

A coat of red lead and then hammerite underseal and it will never rust.
