Replace the wing dude... There's plenty of second hand ones about... or just go for a new one... cheap as chips (Ԛ£25 I think is what I paid for mine)

decent wings are Ԛ£47 from trade suppliers, both mine had started to go @ the lowers ( mudflaps Grrrr ) and are now residing in the skip

the GSF wings are wafer thin but fit OK, just make sure you underseal them to death before bolting them up

yeah i read that the gsf ones are a bit tacky.... i rather original... much stronger and better quality, worth the premium imho.

cheers so rusting on the front arch is easy fix then??

thanks :)
