Thats my favorite so far (Jamies)
I want to get some decent photos of my car but it spends more time off the road than on (not due to unreliability, just me taking things off and 'fixing it' etc!) and I usually forget to bring the camera when it is going!

Thanks Alan, I got the wing off by doing exactly what you said, Im going to use POR-15 along the edge to paint/protect it, Im undecided if it will need any sealer when I put it back together.

front wings

I took my front wings off today, undid all the bolts but found that they were still firmly attached to the car, they were stuck with a seam sealer type gluey stuff. Is this normal? or should there be a rubber wing beading running the length of the wing (like the VW's)?

Ive got Neatrix, never had a squeek from them and they transformed the rear end of the car, but my old ones were totally shot.
