How easy is it to swap a front wing? I have a slightly rusty wing and thought it might be easier and cheaper to swap it for one from a salvage yard rather than get it painted for the rust to come through again. Plus Metropolis Blue colour might also be a better match that way. What needs removing to do the swap?

If it's a MK1 then when I changed my wing it was bumper, headlight and grill removed (Simple enough all bolts easy to get to just remember the headlight bolt underneath the headlight). Then it was arch liner out and undo the wing bolts and it should lift off, if its the passenger side you may need to take the washer bottle out but I'm not sure there.

It was a while ago I did it but I can check the Haynes manual if you get stuck.

Hope that helps,

Ben.
