Just out of interest - have you had this done now?
How did it go?

I replaced my wing not too long ago.
In all honesty if you can afford for someone else to do it then its probably best. It was a complete pig of a job; the worst thing I've done on the car yet (and I've done a fair bit). It was so bad mainly due to the age of the bolts and the fact that they wanted to sheer off at every opportunity! lol.

Hope it all went well for you mate. A repalcement works out a lot cheaper than a respray :)


Any before and after pics?

YEah got it sorted in the end. Garnish a bodyshop in Exeter did it for about £70 which wasnt bad, and the 2nd hand wing was £30 so £100 all in and you cant tell it has a new wing, colour matches perfectly.
Got before, after is on my phone, ill have to upload later.

I still have the old dented wing if its any use to anyone? But prob not! lol
