Taking the wing out

How do you take the wing out? Before you flame me, I have searched for this repeatedly and I couldn't find anything regarding how to take the wing out.

I'm about to put my car on Ebay so I'm going to take a couple of parts off of the car beforehand. So if anyone can tell me how, or link me to another thread that may have instructions on removing the wing, I would be grateful.

Thanks.

there are a total of four bolt to take off...take some floss and run it in between the bottom of the wing and the trunk to get the stick stuff off...and WALA your wing will come off...

if you open youe trunk the bolt might be covered you need to take some bacl plastick pieces off and a deep socket 10mm and that it

woah, woah, woah, retard your level a few notches and listen to me, can you do that? slow down. if you do this "floss" trick, you need to know about the plastic guide pin that aligns the wing and the bolt holes in the trunk. if you had followed team nexus oz's instructions you would have literally sheered the pin off, damaging your wing, and devaluing your awesome evo. could there be a little jealousy involved here? your signature obviously indicates that you like the evo. i hope you didn't knowingly suggest a removal procedure that would cause damage to an innocent persons car.

HAHAHHAHA. It's a plastic snap on peice I doubt would get cut by floss, and even if it did, it's replaceable.

just unbolt

pull off very gently.... be patient, it may take 10 min of gentle tugging... just be careful not to bend the touch too much

Front end is screwed, so the wing survives.

lol.

your engine blows up.

: well, the dynamics of your wing span is missing and due to the aerodynamic theory of 1775, and the optimal efficiency of energy transfer of the gravity, your engine blew up.

Simply put it, you took your wing out, that's why your engine blew up. Sorry, warranty DENIED.


you :
