Thanks Lee, that would be some very useful information if you can find it.Quote:

Photo doesn't seem to work Keith? I'm glad I'm not the only one who's having problems with Photobucket.Quote:

I don't think I have the bodywork skills to attempt the job, but I'm sure I can find someone who can.
Unfortunately the drivers side wing I got from the Clio is beyond saving, so I need to find another one of those. God knows how much they would be from Renault, just the black plastic mesh piece which goes into them is over £70 each!
those are the ones, be interesting to see the way you do it, are you thinking flat to nova wings or similar to clio and bring that area of nova wing out abit ? if that makes sense
My Nova already has wide arch wings, and looking at them side by side with the Clio ones, the profile seems to be very similar, so I don't think it will be too difficult to achieve.Quote:

I can't see why the vent and surround couldn't be tranplanted into the Nova wing?
The drivers side wing is not useable, as you can see;

Something similar to this ?

Yes, that looks good, although I think I would move the vent toward the rear of the wing, as it is on the Clio?Quote:
