   The wings used were good second-hand ones I had sourced from another 6 owner, off a scrapper, some time ago. Originally they were for my green 635, but came into service for the Highline instead.
Once adequately prepped & painted they were fitted.
They were stone-chipped on the reverse, then given a rubberised/wax coating that should mean they last longer than the rest of the car........!!! Lots of regular hose-pipe'ing under the wings should help to ensure their longevity.

	Hi guys, Was away last week, but came back on Sunday & was able to collect my Highline! I'm very pleased with the completed work. This was not a total refurb, 'just' replacing front wings, repainting boot lid after repairing it on the lower seam & removing a quite large dent, repairing/repainting rear spoiler, repairing/repainting lower door edge (forget which one now.....), repairing/repainting around rear number-plate lights, the 'infamous' Highline trap below the numberplate, around the rear lights where the corrosion was pretty advanced, replacing/repainting the sunroof panel (this caused major anquish all round...). All in all, quite alot of work. The rear '635csi' badge was in a poor state, so at the moment the car is debadged - must admit I quite like it that way. Also, the side stripes need to be done (later this week), although I rather like it without.......! Only still on the doors. The number-plates are going to be replaced, these ones are pretty tatty. Wheels to be refurbed very shortly. A few pics for your delectation guys. This work cost me 700.00 GBP all in, for which I am most pleased!! Bargain me thinks. More pics to follow when I get the chance & have given the car a good wash & polish. Dave
