Righty so before buying I had asked numerous people for pictures and thoughts of the product but ever really got the information I wanted to give me full confidence when buying.
A lot of sigma around pattern parts had put me off for months and my search for good condition original panels was hopeless.
So in June I finally bought a pair of wings in Moro Blue, they were delivered within the 10-14 day time window after ordering, and it's only taken me a month to find time to fit them.
So without any more delay.....the pictures!
First, strip down the front end, took a little longer than expected as I hadn't done it before.
Damaged old wings, crumpled and crumbled in my hands, paint ready to flake off in massive chunks.
Concerning areas of the subframe where the sound deadening was collecting water
All the muck scrapped out from drainage runs, side skirts and bottom of wings.
And finally the wings on, quick polish with Tonys orange rub then a coat of Megs Wax.
So in conclusion.... I've only fitted a wing to my MK4 golf before and that was a 2nd hand original part. The pattern panels fitted really well, the position of the brackets was pretty much spot on, so only needed a little nudge here and there to get a good position.
Paint finish is really nice overall and puts the rest of the tired paintwork to shame.
I think the colour appears slightly darker but when the panels haven't been blended I was expecting some colour difference.
The wings are painted with chip paint on the inside too so the issue won't happen again.
In conclusion I'm really happy with them and much happier now my nasty old rusty wings are gone.
