I'm after some general advice before I hack the car up 
The new rear wings are GRP, and about 35mm wider. They seem to fit well enough when offered up to the car.
I'm planning to cut out some of the metal that will no longer be needed (and is damaged/welded from the crash at oulton earlier in the year).
So.... my question is How Much Metal Do I Cut out? And what do i weld up once its out (to make it all a bit stiffer again)?
Fuel Flap - The new wings obv dont have one (they have a hole), so what is the best thing to do? Extend the current pipe out and fit the flap to the new wings?
Fitting: I'm just going to pop rivet the buggers on with a bit of sikaflex in areas.
Any advice/thoughts appreciated
