Ah fuck knows. Only use a flat bit anyway so presume it won't matter. | |

Is it the sport type wings or the non sport type 206 wings that are a good match? | |

I just recently got a load of these shipped over from Germany, they match the Puma arch perfectly: | |

evilrob did a group import on arch repair pieces, think he might have got a few extra ones. | |

Yes you can use 206 front wings, depends on how much you are needing to replace, if its just small patches it may be better to just repair with suitable bits of metal. | |

Seems you are right Mr G! Ill get a wing priced up then. Never heard that before, just found a thread for it on another site, looks to fit well. | |

iirc the best way is to use 206 front wings as they have the same shape. | |

Ahh. I want a Fiesta Zetec S instead with knackered engine to swap it all over. Puma is so gay :( | |

They probably compound the issue yeah, all the rusting though goes on on that seam | |

Ah right, thought it was the wheel arch liners too? With them been carpet, holding water? | |

Yeah its caused by the seam on the inner side of the skin, make sure when youve done it seal it properly from the inside behind the rear door card | |

none really available, repairs are mainly done by re-constructions, only weld in fresh metal though, some people try and use filler and it comes back in a few months | |
