paint remover only took off the clear and the paint not the primer on mine. the only bad thing about doin to ur car is the corners of the wing have overlays u can see afterwards but still looks good IMO. I have the all carbon wing on my ww. I like how u cant see it at nite now.

03 has the full carbon wing.

the easiest way to tell is if the vertical uprights are painted on the inside. if there are no bolt holes & you cant see any CF, chances are you have the newer wing W ABS Uprights

I LOOOOVE the carbon fiber hidden underneath the paint. I have had some friends that traced out a design with masking tape and then softly bead blasted the paint off and buffed the carbon fiber for a nice look.
