Wing Removal On R32gtst

[LEWIS]

hey guys i have come across a problem tryin to remove my r32gtst standard wing ...i took off the 3 bolts but it wont seem to come off so i got fishing line the thick shit and ran it underneath it to try to break the seal i spose but all it did was snap and its not even loose at all..can anyone tell me if there are any hidden screws/bolts that i have to get at or nething else that will help me get it off? im sure a few of you guys have done this before... i have only located 3 bolts!

if the fishing line didnt work the try something like a plastic knife..

and put more muscle into it

yer muscle just pull it off it is just held there by dobble sided tape

3 bolts on each side?

well its been on there for 15 years or so perhap leave it in the sun to loosen the adhesiveness? or you just get your muscles into it and rip it off as youd need to respray the boot anyway? then get some prepsol/prepwash or goo remover onto the adhesive and give the paint a cut n polish. then tape up the holes and voila

EDIT: or try a thicker fishing line and pull up toward the wing when sawin it slowly as to avoid damaging the paint and boot...

I had a non standard wing (some twin wing thing, how it connected to boot seemed exactly the same as normal with though, i didnt like it, should try and sell it) on my 32, and it only had 3 bolts on each side.

I'm a little confused though, cause you say if you are careful you wont need a respray?? I am soon to get a kit fitted on and sprayed etc and at the same time i will be doing the boot, cause they need to weld in the holes smooth out and respray the boot. Are you just going to drive around with holes in your boot or what?
