Hello
I'm I right in thinking the only difference between a convertible wing and a coupe/saloon wing is the length of the section that covers the sill??
If so it's cut and shut time

if you take a wing off you will see a welded join where the lower part is added to the wing the rest is the same as a saloon one if only someone remade this part as a repair panel it would save you having to go to bmw every time if i remember right £258 each inc vat

Spot on Dave - i've fitted a cut + shut wing to the Tourer, nothing to do with size issues - just rust lol.
Side skirts of a tec1 just cover the welded line
