Price of wing?

[Guest]

Been looking for weeks for a second hand S2/turbo wing. Found one for £145. Is this too much to pay.

If it's genuine and hasn't got a rotten corner behind the wheel I'd say grab it.

On that subject I spent a few hours yesterday stripping off the plastic sill trims and looking at what was underneath. I had believed my car was 100% solid (and it is) but it has some surface rust where the wheels have blasted the paint away from the arches and where the plastic trims had rubbed against the bottom of the sill. I also found one of the drain holes in the bottom of the sill was blocked, under the seam at the back of the door - coincidence that this is where cars are starting to rust? I took a lot of the paint and stone chip protection off with a wire brush in a drill and treated it with Hammerite just to be safe - I can get away with that as I have 968 sill trims to go on. It might be worth checking your's too though everyone.

Fen, will buy wing - can't stand looking at zits the size of Blairs gob any longer.I've got some rust on mine where the tailgate pin fits in, easy to fix - but good idea to keep eye on potential problems.

On my 924 had a wet carpet. When investigated battery box had rotted out as over the years, no one had cleaned the leaves from the drainaige hole. Something I check regually now as don't want a days welding.
