    Best done with a "Q max" cutter (ebay) just measure your hole for the size. 25mm springs to mind...
    I'll find the link to Alex's resto project about the coatings.
    Most important to get a covering were the arch liner rubs against the folded edge. All 80s/coupes rust due to the liner fidgerting through the paint and galv.

    thanks Al, made sure they were RS2 as i was looking at the Etka screen as he was sourcing the part numbers.

    RS2 and Coupe wings are different

    Ask gt500 on here regarding proofing, I had a pair of new wings fitted to one of my ur's last year and they seriously went to town proofing them with a factory spech product then painted the wings off the car, but they were £1300 just fir the wings so I deffo wanted them proofing!

    The new wing probably wont have a hole in it for the side repeater so you'll need to drill it before you paint it
    will the holes be there for the side strips or will i have to drill those too?

    would it be a good idea to use some sort of wax coating too?
