Now that you've rescued that poor vert from someone that obviously had such poor taste, do the right thing and fix it.

Dude, you have some serious work ahead of you.
I think the wing is the least of your worries.
Good luck with it and enjoy a labor of love............

for me it's a no go, but it's not my car, and not about what my preferences are. If you like it keep it!!
