Hello people!! This is my first foray into the Jap chat forum. I'm usually found around the TVR S forum, so this is all a bit weird.

Anyhow, a friend's ex girlfriend has just kicked the wing in on his Eunos Roadster and he wants to get a new one, my father has said he will spray it up, but if it is a Eunos and not a Mazda, will the panels be different? Or can he just buy a corresponding panel from a MX 5?

It is a '89 1.6 model, definitely an import.

Can anybody help? Or possibly direct me to somewhere I can phone to find out?

Cheers

Yep, as Ben says, the panels and virtually all the mechanical bits are identical.

I needed a new front wing a couple of years back when a klutz in an old Land Rover ran out of spatial awareness. I was surprised to find that the local Mazda dealer was the cheapest place I could find a new one - about £100 AIR...
