Default NISMO High Wing?

I was looking at my NISMO wing and it looks like it can be broken down into multiple pieces. My plan is to do a carbon fiber wrap on all the gray portions of my 2014 NISMO and being able to take the wing apart would make it much easier. Does any one know if this is possible, or if you have done it, how bad of an idea is it?

It's possible, very much a bitch... You'll likely break it, but in a very fixable way.

I'll see if I can find pics of mine when it was in 2 pieces

Doesn't Seibon already to a version with a CF blade? I mean, not really CF, but CF wrapped

couple companies do, but it's the difference in $600+ for a new wing or wrapping the one I have. One of my guys does wrap professionally and volunteered his skills so it costs me time and the wrap, and I get to learn a new skill.

When you say break it, what do you mean? Is a specific location weak?

I believe the middle piece is glued as well as screwed

This is a picture of an e-bay Nismo wing. Mot sure if the OEM one is the same, but this maybe helpful.

Thanks cool toy, that is actually a lot of help. I'll get it off next week and see how it goes. Fingers crossed I don't **** it up.
