Wanted rear arch repair panels |
Lead | ||
|
Hi all, with the absence of a club membership (i will be posting cheque tomorrow) iam in desperate need of a pair of rear wheel arch repair panels as mine were
filled by a former keeper and consequently fell apart this morning
Has anyone got any spare? (stop laughing!) or know where i may be able to obtain some? off side (drivers) is the worst, near side may be salvageable.... Any leads greatfully received Spence |

Just spoke to Steve, we've run out but it's possible Adrian Miller or the Viva OC may have some left - take a look at their website at http://www.vauxhallviva.com/

I'm not sure, but I did think if Paul Cullum confirmed they had any we might be able to arrange something between the two spares schemes (I think the arches were bought jointly in the first place), or it's possible Adrian Miller might have some - I believe he's now independent. |

just a thought | #11 | ||

This may sound crazy but are the arches of the front wings the same as the rear? It may be possible to buy secondhand wings with good arches, then simply cut
them out and weld in position. It may be more expensive in the long run but at least you would get new arches.

Ive done it the other way round Brian, I have used rear wheel arch repair panels to repair the rear section of the front wings, so it may be possible to do it
the opposite way round, although I never used a full repair panel on a front wing, think the front contour maybe different. BB.
