Fitting a near side front wing mk1 octi vrs

Featured Replies

Hi guys

I have the task of fitting a replacement near side front wing on my mk1 octi vrs.

I have eyed up the job and all seems fairly straight forward bar 2 pretty awkward to get to fasteners in the door recess, any hints and tip for the best way forward and getting the job done would be hugely appreciated ????

a socket on an extension in the door recess. Don't forget the little bolt at the bottom of the wing to the arch. Trim the underseal with a sharp knife if necessary between the sill and the wing edge to allow removal easily.

You could probably get that blue mark out your bumper with some t cut or rubbing compound.

 

Now go look for a blue car with silver paint on it :devil:
