    After fitting the Hifly Super2000's and getting the F1 through its WOF recheck, I took it for a blast last night after work out to Twilight Golf then home afterwards. 26km drive out on the open road and the car/tyres looked to be performing well.

    It turns out if you want AI to write your code you need to give it VERY specific requirements. Sometimes you even need to suggest where it might have gone wrong for it to repair it's mistakes. After many hours staring at the damn thing it...

    Wheel arch liner out and dremel the nuts off the inside?? As above, keep heat down for sake of wing and guard.

    Not sure if it will help but the wings come off pretty easily. Unbolt at the top then a couple of screws in the door shut and one or two in the wheel arch. You would be lucky to drill the bolts without melting a lot of plastic.

    Yep, it's the two screws holding the guards on to the wing that are the issue. All four of them! I guess they have rivnuts or somethig on them. The headlights will be staying on the car but the guards really do need to come off for me to polish...

    Don't you need to remove the bumper to take the headlight out? Maybe easier to in situ.
