Much they aint wings.

Its just wee add on vents that are stuck on the existing wings, not new ones.

Easily repairable for under £300 as mentioned above, and wud be a decent job for that money.

some1's taking the piss out of you, with a bi of light work most of that dent can be knocked out then its just a case of using a bit fibreglass and filler to smooth it over and restore the shape then its just the cost of a little bit of spraying, as for the arch just get a replacement there cheap enough

Also the RRP for a wheel arch (wheelspat as you call it) is £8.50

You are being ripped off

you could get away with a door skin there so £40

P.S you could get that all done for less than £300

£700 for that damage makes no sense.

Whoever is tellin u all that is talkin shite me thinks, any decent panel beater or bodyshop would sort the door out no problem, and just get a new wing.


And as far as spraying goes it shouldnt cost ya no more than £100

well, the guys say that new door shell needs to be bought £150, and new wing and wheel spat, cos it will be easier to get a new door, as it cannot be bent back to make it look like perfect, so £680..other places charge nearly 1k, toehr places charge about £400, but they seem all dodgey :( anyway i cant believe it

Looks nasty but easily repaired.

With cost of wings so cheap, prob just be easy to replace that rather than repair. Door however will be repaired.

Both wing + door sprayed, door re aligned. Colour match shouldnt be too much of an issue coz its a pretty recent metallic car.
