I am stumped, I need to know how to mount the wing on my Mustang DS body, there are two possibilites:

1. trim a bit off and mount it so the angle is about 70*
2. dont trim any and mount it so angle is about 30*

I think option 1 looks better but will it affect handling at that angle?
Opition 2 would give a very low wing-body contact area (1-2mm at most)

Also, how do I mount the wing, It goes right on the rear of the shell (no mounting posts). Should I use glue? My dad was thinking of using pop rivets:) :( will that work?

well rivets will not work they would just destroy the body.. (nice try dad ;) )

As to exactly how to mount it, Im affraid I am of no use as I havent even seen the body you are refering to, sorry.

Just use screws that is what I did on my T3 body. Or if you are afriad of having holes in you body. Double sided tape should do the trick. Get 3M though no store brand
