Replacing front wing

[J.Topaz]

I need to replace my nearside front wing as my current one is a bit dented.

The new wing is sitting in the shed and I wouldn't mind trying to fit it myself but I have no idea where to start? Do you guys think it's an easy DIY job or should I leave to the professionals?

IIRC should be ok mate. I'm sure someone asked the same question a while back, maybe PhilW, have a search.

Found the answer.

"It will just be bolts, 10mm at a guess, bumper, head light and sideskirt will more than likely have to come off"

"correct, all bolts - mostly covered in underseal

you will be lucky to reuse the existing wing - but basically remove front bumper, remove arch liner & then undo all the bolts you can see

mind the door when you take the wing off, else you'll scratch that too

pretty easy to do though"



Seems simple enough. I'll give it a go at the weekend
