Ford Focus MK1 Front Wing Removal & Preventative Maintenance

Another blog in the world that is MK1 Focuses... this time it isn't actually a blog, more of a instruction video into removing a Focus front wing and things to watch out for, warning contains amateurish camera work at times :)
All in preparation for its date with the bodyshop for fresh paint.

Great ideas to keep your car from rotting. I´do go a bit further and spray a layer of waxoyl or any other sort of cavity wax (that isn´t sticky when dry) over the spraypaint. To prevent rust in between the seams I use a penatrating cavity way, like dinitrol ML. The key is to crate a flexible water dispersing barrier between the metal and the elements.

I'm about to tackle this job and I'm sure I'll need to replace some of the fasteners etc. do you have a link to buying all the required screws and fasteners? TIA.
