Wing fitting

[Joez4]

Will a face-lift front and rear wing fit a pre face-lift car and would it be a simple bolt on job or would any modification be involved.

I'm only able to find face-lift wings for sale.

Yeah just make sure the rears are for a roadster and not a coupe

It's a bolt-on job.
Whether it's "simple" will depend on your own capabilities.
The rear wing can certainly be awkward - probably best to get some input from guys who break zeds as to the best way

I've looked at how to guides and watched videos etc it does look fiddly, but my main concern was that a facelift panel wouldn't fit, different amount of bolt holes or different bolt locations on the wing or chassis, or the profile of the wing around the lights etc,

All the same so no worries there.
Pretty basic spannering, if a little time consuming.
The rear has one torx screw under the top, level with the middle of the infill strip between the boot lid and roof. If you look down the gap between that strip and the wing you can see the bracket.
Easiest way to access it is to move the roof back a little way to get some slack, then pop the rear seal out, push the fabric down and get in there with a torx bit. Use a 1/4 drive ratchet, or even better, one of those ratchet ring spanner affairs that holds a torx bit. Basically something not to deep to fit in between the roof and the screw. The screw can be quite tight, but if you get the bit aligned squarely you can then let the roof move forward a little to push it tight against the tool and make it easier to get leverage.
In a lot of cases, people don't bother to refit that screw either.
