Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Very easy, you need to remove an Allan screw from the top of the air intake cover on the spoiler upright. Then pull the cover off, it's quite tight but pops off once you have removed the screw. ( it's the top screw that can't be seen and is silver, not the black one that is visible at the bottom ). Once cover is off you will see a bolt. Loosen, then important engine cover must be open to remove blade to clear bodywork, risk of denting rear wings if you don't . Easier with a helper then hinge blade up and remove. Remove spoiler blade forks refit is reverse. I have the torque settings if you need them. If you need help finding a carbon one for sale drop me a PM ;-) I can help.

Sorted thanks a lot , just need to fit carbon mirrors now to go with the grill and spoiler.
I assume the carbon wing is aftermarket? Can't imagine there are too many genuine ones flying around? What sort of cost and quality?

The carbon makes for a nice contrast on the right car.
