Mikey444 Posted March 12, 2017 Report Share Posted March 12, 2017 Noticed quite a big gap here compared to the other lupos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sausage Posted March 12, 2017 Report Share Posted March 12, 2017 Rear of the front wing that's where it mounts, either didnt fit very well and that's the best they could do or else just slapped on and your gap is the result. it's not structural unless the rust gets a hold in the gap and rots the sill.

weslangdon Posted March 12, 2017 Report Share Posted March 12, 2017 Undo the two bottom bolts, the screw that holds the wing from inside the car near the top door hinge and the screw at the top of the wing bonnet junction by the bottom corner of the front window and slide the wing back. The only problem bolts are the bottom two as they rust and can be difficult to remove but a grinder cures this and then you can use a pair of stainless nut and bolts instead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikey444 Posted March 14, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2017 Cheers, thought it had some structural integrity, but thats ok, its maybe been replaced by another owner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chino_UK Posted March 16, 2017 Report Share Posted March 16, 2017 I'd clean that join out, use some kurust on any surface rust and use some waxoyl or dinitrol there to stop rust taking hold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
