Removing skirts and fitting wings



  1.8 RSi MK1 Superchipped
lol, No smutty comments about skirt removal please, lol...

I got some 16v wings and bonnet to go on my RSi, but looking at the side skirts looks like they need to come off also to fit the wings.

How do they come off? looks like they are stuck on! also I havent got a 16v front bumper, how much do they differ from the RSi? will it look totally s**t? I know the 16v's are slightly wider.

Once the wings are on, what do I use to re-stick the skirts on?

Please help folks.

Also got a big f-off spoiler to go on, but apparently it just 'sticks' on... what do i use for this? presumably some very strong sticky stuff.....

thanks guys.

deppending how big the spoiler is then best stuff to use would b tigger seal.....if u can't find any of that around the shops then i used EVO-STICK SERIOUS STUFF...coomes in a black tube from b&q/homebase....it help my spoiler on nicely....except its white so make sure it doesnt show round the edges....
if i remember correctly the side skirts don't come off....you should be able to remove the wings without touching them...as long as u got the right screw driver...

however i'd advise getting a 16v bumper as it won't look quite right with the wings sticking out further than the bumper... should be able to pick one up for £30 in average condition

Nice one, I'll pop out later and have a look.

I see there's a screw holding it in just inside the wheel arches, so the skirts are stuck on to the the car (below the doors) but just sits there at the bottom of the wings?

I been looking, but struggling so far......
