Hi guys,

just a thought at the moment until i get a bit of cash, but im thinking of getting rid of my big wing at the back, and replacing it with either a trd replica via nic, or a second hand standard one.

4 questions!

 

1) How easy is it to take the current spoiler off - I have only had a VERY quick look but i couldnt see any bolts or anything to unscrew.

 

2) Will the above 2 spoilers simply fit the current holes that are there, hard to know until i take it off i guess :rolleyes:

 

3) How much do you think i would get for a Genuine Carbon fibre VS rear wing. Average condition, as the carbon fibre has fabed in areas.

 

4) How much do 2nd hand original spoilers tend to sell for?

Bolts are hidden away in the boot trim, easy to spot.

Yes all spoilers that are bought should come ready to use the same bolt holes

 

3) How much do you think i would get for a Genuine Carbon fibre VS rear wing. Average condition, as the carbon fibre has fabed in areas.

No idea

Usually about £20+ delivery, ive got one in silver 199 but probably some closer to you

Just in case you do sell it Dave, there are some good selling points for your particular wing...

 

1) The fading on the carbon-fibre section is very minor compared to any other Veilside wings I've come across. Some seem to have gone a bit orange in the sun, whereas yours has clearly had regular waxing. ;)

 

2) Most VS wings have panels on each end, whereas yours is perfectly blended and therefore more attractive;

 

3) The silver / fibre-glass combination makes the wing look sleeker than a solid colour.

 

I've got some pics, though they're a little old. (Let me know if you want them removed.)

 

P.S. I like the TRD too. :)
