Afternoon all,

 

I need to replace my front driver side wing as a Tesco driver kindly smashed into it. 
 

I’ve got a replacement already but can’t seem to find a guide anywhere, only a mk1. I’m sure I can muddle my way through it but does anyone have a guide or any tips? Want to get it back on the road!

The parts catalogue diagram and list for a mk2 Fabia front wing are HERE.  That should help you get started.

Just FYI the Octavia wings are also glued on with a polycarbonate (?) foam adhesive which can be encouraged to loosen by application with a hot air gun.  I didn't see any mention on the Fabia wing diagram of the recommended goo to reattach so I believe the Fabia is only bolt-on and not stick-on also.

Thanks very much mate, appreciate that! Will make things much easier if I know where to start looking 

Workshop procedure, not included wheel arch liner because it's self explanatory and if you cannot remove that, the wing should be left to someone who can.

I hit my front nearside wing on a low garden wall. I bought a new one on E-bay in the right colour and took the old one off and fitted the new one. I recall lots of fittings of many different types. Once you have the new one on, make sure the gaps are OK and that it it lines up spot on with the door. Then tighten the bolts and then replace the wheel arch liner last. I put the liner on only to have to remove it to push the new wing in so that it was matching the door. Don't trust the colour in an e-bay photo. Ask for the paint code.     

Is the workshop manual posted by UrbanPanzer available online anywhere?
