Posted By: manic28_am Body Work - 19th Apr 2012 7:35pm
Had a bump today and need some bodywork doing. I need someone who can fit a new bumper (no fogs), driver side headlight and side panel. As you can see, the thing I hit mashed up the bodywork. Bonnet and everything else all looks fine, but if you can suggest someone cheap and cheerful that would be great.

Is it worth me finding these parts from a scrap-yard or what?

I'm in New Ferry, although prepared to go wherever really. Car is driveable.

A safe-t-bar on the van ahead. Foot was wet after jumping out of the car for some milk and it just slipped off the brake pedal. Van was fine. My poor Astra took the brunt.

You have that wing? Bloody fantastic. Yes it is star silver. I've got scuffs on edge of drivers door, but nothing a bit of t-cut wouldn't sort.

I can get headlight and bumper on ebay, but was worried about that wing.

Let me know for sure if it is the right side and I'll defo have that!

Thanks. Good website this!

well ive just been and checked and unfortunately i only seem to have the passenger side wing left sorry !!!

sods law eh !!! .. mind you its of no use to me if you still wish to collect it from me ???
may come in handy one day lol !!

sorry genuinly thought i had the o/s wing left here

may be worth trying j&m speed up your neck of the woods for a pattern wing mate should be cheap enough ,and if you get stuck ill gladly paint it cheap for you mate

No worries bud. I appreciate the cheap paint offer. Will be back in touch early next week probably.

Cheers, Andy.
