front wing removal
#1
#2
IF, big if, it is that same as pre facelifts, it just unbolts EXCEPT where it connects to the front low quarter valence, which it is braised to. It MIGHT be that this join is bolted on facelifts.
To remove the wing this braised join has to be separated. Apart from that proceed as follows (but this is pre facelift so your car might be a bit different)

- there are two VERY hard to get at bolts just inside the wing top at the door end, which can JUST be accessed from the gap the door leaves when the door is removed.
- remove the wheel arch baffle at the rear of the wheelarch to reveal bolts holding the wing to the sill/bodywork
- undo the front baffle and remove
- undo the line of self tapping bolts along the engine bay gutter
- remove the headlight unit and trim to access bolts in the nacelle area
