Mk6 front wings wanted in white

Postby stevo » Sun Jul 24, 2016 5:12 pm

So as is often the case, my mk6 needs two new front wings but im really struggling to source any decent ones. Im fitting sport arch covers when ive sorted my wings but i dont want to fit the arches only to find the wings need replacing 6 months down the line.

One option is to cut the rusted part out and use fibreglass and filler to replace it, done right i think it would be ok.

If anyone has any decent wings please let me know.

Fibreglass is never the right way to correct rust.

Buy a couple and drop them in to your local painter to be painted white.

Was a bit wary about none ford parts as ive heard they can be a poor fit.

Might have scored a couple on ebay close to me actually but if not ill look into that.
