ive removed the bolts under the bonnet and the one under the sill area, bumper is removed but it seems to be fixed near the door hinges somewhere but there is no visible bolts! i feel a bit stupid having to ask TBH.

thanks

I know on the Corsa there are the bolts under the bonnet (4 or 5), one behind the bumper, one on the sill, and one behind the door!

You have to half open the door to get at the bolt behind it, its near the top of the door hinge, you should be able to see it if its similar on a Nova

Theres two bolts on the inside, remove the side foot trim panel and you'll get to them.
It bolts the back of the wing onto the car.

You may also find that its been bonded on down the back edge with seam sealer. Mine on 3 of my novas werent, but on my mates one it was sealed solid, totally destroyed it getting it off (good job it was fecked anyway)

Yeh, if there original wings they will have been bonded on the top edge etc.
If they've been removed before you should be ok as not many people bother to re-apply new sealer.
