[rustym95]

just bumper off light out undo bolts, take wheel off undo the plastic wheel arch, undo the bolts, may need to pop the spot weld near the A frame if it was welded, then have to put flat screw driver in the gaps to pull off the wing as tere is sealent inbetween the wing and fame.

I took one off six months ago and I'm sure my bumper stayed on.

Is there a weld?

There's a bolt/self tapper at the bottom of the A post that's visable when you open the door.

mine has strutes from wing to the bumper, held on by 2 10m bolts, and there is 2 spot welds on A frame 3inc apart holding the wing on on both sides.

Early (94/95) wings are slightly different.
