new body panels?

Postby tomcatscreenplays » Mon Oct 01, 2012 11:26 pm

Hi
Stupid question but my FTO got pranged in the work car park and needs a new front nearside wing. :?:
The person who hit it has given me their insurance details to get it repaired but where can new panels be bought in the UK? (If at all) :x

I know I could get a decent straight wing from ebay and sort it out but would like it fixed properly really as it was not my fault.
Cheers
Tom

Cost will be enormous new. Pretty sure camskill don't do them.
Its the workmanship on the paint finish that makes the difference, bring it to someone good and use a second hand wing.

thanks, thats what I thought I checked camskill before anywhere else :) they have bonnets but not wings? but as a bonnet is £400 that tells me a bit about cost :(

they are sending out an assessor from her insurance tomorrow to do an estimate so I will talk to him and ask him to do 2 quotes 1 for if I supply a decent 2nd hand wing so I can negotiate with the insurers.
