Hey everyone so i just got my MG wing today!!! but i got a few questions first before the installation...first is ive had the ap1 oem spoiler on since i got it and there a four holes...two on the outside and two in the middle...

how can i cover up the holes left in the middle!! they look ugly.. something like those little clip ins that cover up the license plate holes would be perfect...

Second, on this wing there are only two screws which fit perfectly on the outer two holes...but is the ENTIRE wing held down by these TWO little screws on the rear??

I would think this isnt enough to support it... it IS light though...thanks...o yea btw what are those little drilled holes in the middle of the wing for??? One is shown in the pic above ^

 

I'm not 100% sure, but I would think you need to put some double sided tape on the front of the wing-mount. Doing that would probably also keep your paint from gettin all scratched up.

As for the remaining holes, I'm sure there are a bunch of homemade plugs that would cover em up, paint the top with some touch-up paint and you're set!

 

thanks 4banger....anymore ideas any1????

 

use double sided 3m tape, the grey one with peel off red protecting.


yup, the wing is only held on by the bolt in the rear.


it shouldbe fine. mine never got ripped off or torn off, nor did it lean back or pop out.


i was a bit shocked too...

 

alrite kool...thanks ill do that

 

anymore ideas on the hole problem??

 

That's weird. My 01 only has the two outer holes. You could ask a shop to shave it for a few hundred. Otherwise just find a plug or dressy fastener to plug the holes.

 

heres an idea, find the diameter of the hole in MM and order some gauged plugs and paint em NFR

Shaving would be the best bet, but also most expensive. I guess you can plug them. I don't think it'll look very nice with two plugs on the trunk though...

 

or find someone local who wants the oem spoiler, and swap whole trunk with another NFR
