LMAO, getting it off is one thing, (destroying the spoiler) putting it back together is a whole other story.


In the link I posted, I believe Reuben states that you CANNOT take the spoiler apart. Seeing as many as he has done, I would take his word for it.

 

mine has three bolts on eather side, i havent tryed to take it apart but looks like it does. seems like it should at least since part of the wing is not carbon

 

It cannot be done.

 

How will you get the old paint our from around the inside corners?

 

Ok, lets get a few things straight:

The evo8 wing CAN BE TAKEN APART without destroying it. I have personally done it myself no more than a couple weeks ago. It took a combination of aircraft stripper (for the clear coat and paint), then I had to use a air powered DA sander with 320grit to get through the base coat/primer and down to the bare carbon fiber. Do not be afraid of ruining the carbon fiber by sanding over it, the cf is ridiculously strong.

 

ah ha! i knew it

 

If anyone was local who wanted theirs taken apart, I'd gladly do it for a small fee.

 

Yes they are recoverable unfortunately it takes 12+ hours of sanding by hand to get the desired results.

 

I wanna know how. All i see are large rivets, not bolts or screws. I see a few at the base, but no where else.

It'll give me something to do since I went wing less over a year ago.

 

Touche

 

bigben, did you have to clear coat it or did you just buff it?

 

Know anywhere i could buy the carbon fiber piece?

 

There's usually wings for sale in the used evo parts section I see them all the time in all colors. It would probly be cheaper to buy a used wing and then sell yours on ebay or something.

 

you guys know how much they charge for painting tail if i was to buy a new tail and swap it with my old one?

 

whats the big deal here?? You just want your wing to have CF ?? Pm me, i have re finished of bunch of them and and currently have 2 FULL CF wings for sale. If you sand it all down it does take ALOT of time and you have to re clear it after words. YOU CAN NOT TAKE THE WING APART WITHOUT RUINING IT!!!THE WING IS RIVETED ON, IF YOU DRILL IT OUT YOU WILL RUIN IT, TRUST ME. OP, pm if you want to buy a full cf wing.
