Front: bolt on.
Rear: part of the bodyshell.

Have a look at the for sale section for someone breaking a car in your colour if you want a front wing.

Driver`s B pillar. Read the code http://www.omegaowners.com/forum/YaBB.pl?num=1222004987/0#0
Front wing can be removed without taking the front bumper off but it's tight.

2 torx screws attaching the arch liner to the front bumper need to come out, then the arch liner. 3 x 10mm bolts holding the black bumper retainer then the 2 x 10mm bolts behind that. Line of bolts across the top (8 IIRC and all 10mm). Then 2 x 10mm bolts behind the sill cover, 1 x 10mm bolt at the top hinge edge from the door side and 1 x 10mm bolt about halfway up the hinge edge from inside the wheel arch. Done :y
