Default Finally took off my wing. My DB8

I don't think I've ever posted my car in this Forum yet. So here goes.

To make this a technical post. I took my wing off (finally). It wasn't as easy as some might have had, because I had to literally scrape that tar (adhesive) off of the trunk.

I used Goo Gone, but it didn't work. I had to use a quarter to scrape that sh*t off. The paint was fine afterwards. All I did was give it a lil wax job. Now I just need to cover up those holes.

I forgot who (ht member) came up with the idea of using electrical tape, cuting them into small circles, and then paint match the electrical tape with touch up paint.

Definitely sounds like a plan tho.

98+ had the chrome trim... 94-97 has black trim around the windows. I prefer the black rather than the chrome, but that's just me
