Installing Carbon front "canard" wings.....

I ordered a set of carbon firbre canards for my Protege5, and I need a little help with the install.... I got it from Carbon-Concepts and I was a bit shocked to see "no instructions" and worse yet, not ficking other parts!! Just 4 carbon canards, for $130.00.

I went to a couple of bodyshops and they wanted around $150.00 to install them. I've never used a rivet gun and that's what both shops mentioned.....

Thanks, Speedbump.

PS. To make matters worse, they applied the "gloss finish" on the "inside" of the canard, meaning when you look at the carbon carnard from the side, it;s not finished.....maybe I should sent it back......HELP!!

You always e-mail the people at the Carbon-Concepts website and ask if they can send you instructions or if they have them on the website itself. Then you could just print them off the computer. Im sure they'll try to help you someway because they would hate to lose 130.00 and a potential sale.
