so i gets home this evening..........and.........(update)

Having spent xmas day at the gf's parents, and a big chunk of today at mi dads, i get back from 2 days away and i find this

some tw*t has dented my front offside wing. f**kers.

wing is quite dented, paint now flaking off - down to the bare metal.

Hope their tesicles rot and drop off.

Anyone have any idea how much it will cost to replace the wing?

Does anyone know of any decent body shops in north east - around newcastle area?

 

hello there wings are very easy to put on urself and in you source one in ur colour take 30-45mins tops to do i have changed both of mine in an hour esy as anything i live in stockton if u were able to get here i would do the wing free for you

 

thats unreal, ******s. if Martin_Hill_1989 doesnt do it for ya ive used bodyfix in wallsend in the past and they really good, done a class job of my 106 rallye

 

Gits! Should be easy enough to source a wing in the correct colour and as said above dead easy to fit.

 

Could just as easily have been a woman!

 

then i hope her genetalia wrot's and drop off.

well sick like, coppers recon it was just a drunken charver.

funny thing is, its the first thing like this ive heard of happening in my 'hood.

ill be off sourcing parts at the weekend!

 

forgot to add in my other post (surfing too many windows at the same time), thanks for the offer, ill look for new wing first, then see my options.

may take the opportunity to get some other work done (couple of small rust bubbles just started to come through).

whats best........... second hand genuine panel, or brand new copy panel from ecp or gsf?

 

well i would think if you can get a good genuine second hand one would be best as would be a perfect fit and if could get in same colour even better. because pattern parts dont always match up properly and some times more hassel than good.

 

thats what i thought but my bro thinks pattern ones as good. personally i would prefer original so thats what i think ill do.

 

yea i would do that myself and the body shop next door to where i work likes to buy genuine parts as fit together better and get perfect shut lines with out messing around.
If you still need it fitting give me a shout if you not confident enough to fit.

 

cheers dude

im off to get replacement parts on monday, would have done it this morning but i couldn't be chewed.

 

DONT BUY A SPURIOUS WING! get an original 1 be it from the scrappers or main stealers spurious wings are ****e and half the time u av 2 cut em up 2 get em on

 

As said above, definitley DON'T buy a pattern wing, bought some from GSF for mine when it had its respray...guy at the bodyshop phoned me up a few days later and said "err, these wings are about 2inches too long!" so i returned them and went to VW and bought genuine ones which went on effortlessly.

 

how much was the one from vw?

 

update as someone has seen fit to "modify" the car again!

Quite i nice guesture i dont think!

 

Fckin hell, do your neighbours not like you or something

 

oh man i feel sorry for you wa anything nicked?? and you sud get a camera on that car it is smart as **** you had any joy with getting a wing??

 

the mad thing is im not the kinda person to annoy people - i think lifes too short for agro.

I decided in the end to just take it to a bodyshop, they gunna put new wing on, and do a little bit of other work (usual rust spots round windscreen and couple of other jobs!). They said probably about 200 to fix so not really that bad.

Im looking into getting cctv too.

Nothing nicked, just broke the window - probably the same person as the wing.

 

ok and that sounds a fair price like and i hate people that do thing like that they probs jelous of you +/or you car lol

 

your not having much luck mate, you got it alarmed?
