1st Gen R53 Cooper S Anyone Interested in Getting A GP Wing

Oh geez, you make it sound so dirty...

 

Wooohoooo...a "Fifty Shades" dose of Rocky Mountain Hi Times banter! :devil:

 

not interested, however i will sell you a 2nd gen GP wing that's still attached to the GP2. It'll be the most expensive wing you ever purchase.

 

How does the GP1 wing install? Does it attach to the rear roof piece, or just to the hatch?

 

Just the hatch.

Thanks Paul. So does the bracket then attach to the hatch, and the wing to the bracket?

It looks like its a matter of drilling a couple of holes into the side of the hatch and done, from the diagram.

 

That's the way it looks to me from the diagram. I've never looked closely at one in the flesh, but I should have one here to inspect and dis-assemble in a week or so.

 

What did you end up paying for the wing and glass?

 

Cool, let me know what it looks like when it comes in. Orranje is indefinitely down, not looking like I'm going to get anywhere there anytime soon. I haven't done a rear wiper delete yet, and that was next on the list. Might just bite the bullet, get the GP glass and wing as a more expensive rear wiper delete.

 

Having looked at all this closely in the past. There are nutserts in the hatch that the uprights bolt to.

Note how they are attached here...

 

Thanks Nate, it's just like the orranje mounting then.
