Right to cut it short as i have already had a moan in my "whats the point" thread in the general gassing topic, my car was driven into and the front wing is dented and also has a crack in it.

First question: Is it easier/cheaper to have the dent pushed out, the crack filled and then re-sprayed or is it easier to buy a new one?

Second question: Can i fit a wing myself or is it wise to seek the aid of a garage?

Cheers, Timmer.

If its just the wing you may find a good one in a scrappy or a new one shouldnt be that expensive. They only bolt on so an easy fix, then its off to a good paint shop for a quick once over or a jiffy can if you aint fussy

Just checked, £30 for a wing from Autofive

there are always cars being broken on french forums such as 205gtidrivers, psooc, pgac, fsc, 205owners etc etc if you werent too fussy you could just pickup one and fit it assuming its the right colour
