Wing size on 5dr... Same as a 3dr?
« on: 09 April 2009, 11:35 »
Just interested if the wings are the same on the 5door model as on the 3door.
I know the doors are longer and wasn't sure if this effected wing shape/size. Cheers

99% sure they are the same.


But you have different shape indicators in the wing, older models have the square, then after 95 they have ovals.
