Hi
I am looking at replacing the front and rear wheel wings on my Mk 6 special. The ones on the car are fibreglass and in poor condition.
Does anyone know where I can buy these or contact details for someone that can fabricate them .
I live of the Sunshine coast and would prefer to get the job done locally if possible.
Thanks
Mark

I have connections with bulk manufactured body parts. Clearly you are a one off of each panel you want - which would mean a dye.

Are there other cars like yours? Can you get together and get a bulk buy?. Unlikely as I've never seen you car.

Just chucking it out there. Even fibreglass needs a dye.

To obtain "wings" as cheap as they come, I would suggest that you research manufacturers of trailors. On many occaisons, you will get exactly what you require (metal or fibre glass), or a small modification may be required. Don't limit your search to one country either.
Kind regards
