« on: 30 November 2012, 11:14 »
How are we all?

Ive seen a new wing on ebay, rust free which i want to replace the rusty wing ive got on my anni, put my car details in and it says it won't fit?

Anyone know why or is this just rubbish?

Maybe its a Mk3.5 Cabrio coz they are different around the headlight. (Mk4 headlights)

Yes all cabrio wings are different to hatches, they are shorter where they meet the sill.
