Wanted - passenger side wing (wheel arch panel)

gentlegiant · Post by **gentlegiant** » Wed Aug 02, 2017 7:29 am

Hi all!
Does anyone have a passenger side wing that would fit my 1995 celebration?
Dark red would be ideal. Mine got pranged by an idiot delivery driver...
Fingers crossed

I am going to Lake's today if the weather clears up. They had a red Celebration in last time I was there.

Do you want me to ask the price? They're easy enough to get off so I could get it for you and post or leave it to them? PM me your number if you want to go down this route.

Hi James,
That'd be fantastic thanks!
Just tried messaging you but keeps coming up with an error message.
Maybe if you can message me I'd have more luck with a reply...?
Thanks again,
Graham

Close but no cigar! Breakers had already started the squashing process

Anybody else know of one anywhere..?
Doesn't have to be celebration red although that'd be ideal...

Yes, that was a shame Graham. They'd only recently squashed it but had damaged the wing, as you might expect, by being a bit brutal.

...anyone got any suggestions? I've found a tatty old one that's rusty and the wrong colour...
may have to go with that and kurust-fill-respray if I can't find any better...

There's a decent pair on ebay
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VOLVO-480-ES- ... SwuLZY08DP
look good condition, but also the wrong colour, and collection only from Ware in Hertfordshire. Is that do-able for you? Perhaps a club member could help with collection, especially if you are both coming to the October mini meet.

Found another on EBay. Looks correct colour and "good" condition

Have ordered. Should be with me Tuesday. Fingers crossed all ends well.
Thanks all - really good to have a responsive forum to connect with!

I have a pair of white ones, not as good as the ebay ones- bit of rot on the gutter & the part of the panel parallel to the road surface when fitted. Definitely fixable.

Best

Tim (Blackpool Lancs)

Thanks Tim. I'm hoping this Ebay one will do the trick.
Should be here Tuesday... if it turns out to be rubbish I'll likely be back on the hunt again.

At a glance I would say the ebay one is nicer, but if your not happy with it then hit me up
