Welcome!
I've got the silver one - When we purchased it in 2008, it didn't have the wing fitted... There were rumours as to where it was, and when the car you now own was purchased by another member on here, it came with the rear spoiler that belonged to mine - I purchased that and had it refitted to bring the car back it's promo-spec.

I may well be wrong, but I can't ever recall seeing the black Fabia fitted with it's spoiler.

The black car never had a rear wing.

The black one was my wife's car.  As said above when we bought it, it came with the silver spoiler and rear screen which I then sold to the member above.  It wasn't a Redbull car but the local Skoda dealer here in Napier (EuroCity) put the body kit and wheels on it along with some sign writing and used it as a car for their Parts Manager.  It has never had a spoiler fitted.

No worries - 18x7.5 I think, with 25mm spacers. 
One day when health and consequently funds allow, I'd like to put it on some smaller (16x7.5) 5-spoke wheels, of an appropriate offset so that I can get rid of the spacers and the cert.
