Default Has anyone removed their Type R wing?

I just bought a used Type R wing and the bolts fell inside the wing. It is a real OEM spoiler. The guy said all wings are like that and when you remove them the bolts fall in if you don't hold on to them. Is this right? He said I just have to drill a small hole to get them out. Any ideas?

Tell him to send you another one. You shouldn't have to be drilling any holes for anything.

you probably bought a stolen one. the bolts can be loosened like that if they are ripped off a car.

Yea, I think you're right. Should have done more research before I bought it. It's ok, I guess. Did not pay that much for it and it is authentic OEM. Just need to do a little customizing.
