It's going to take fabrication. It's not as simple as "where do I drill holes?"
Look at it, figure out what you will have to do, then do it.

I cut it straight down the middle with my dremel just now, worked good, just needa remove all that cross bar crap so my body will fit straight on with the strips that were cut for my previous mounts.

Ill post when Im finnished, I just put the mounts on my car now, and cut away all the leftover cross bar bits so my cover would fit nicely with the previously cut slots.

I had to drill and widen the holes on the wing because it doesnt screw on anymore, it uses body clips.

Before I mount the wing though I have to wait for my screws to arrive so I can put the angle peices on.

As stated before the rc18b wing mounts were really bendy, and gave me hardly no angle at all.
