Hi all

After some really nice person decided to kick my car (why i ask myself) i am in need of a whole new front drivers wing.
I have had a quote from the local pug garage who have quoted me Â£400. I understand that what with the new wing and then the respray it wont come cheap but just wondered if this is reasonable or whether i should get a few more quotes?

Definitely get a few more quotes. It doesn't seem ridiculously expensive to me, but there's on harm in making a few extra phone calls. Then you can play the garages off against each other to get the best deal.

Always works for me! Got my car service down from Â£354 to Â£228 in this way.

You can have mine when the repair cetre has finshed if you like...... think it might be a bit worse off than a kicking though! It does come complete with fetching blue plasters and scraped paintwork.

Price: Free to a good home!!

How nice am I?!!!

400 isnt too bad from pug but if u know of a good bodyshop near you they will do it about half the price

sounds like a rip off to me!
the price of the front wing is 57 Â£ i doubt painting it will cost 300 Â£!!!
check out www.eurocarparts.com
but you won't find it under the 206cc
check under 206gti
they are the same sports wings

the cost from peugeot is the 80 pounds per hour labour they charge!!!!

so painting and fitting will cost the 400 quid

make sure they are planning to replace the wing and not just get the dent pulled out and then filled and painted.

Get a written quote and ask for the old wing afterwards. If no wing then dont pay.

do you really need a wing ?

i know it's the best idea but at xmas 1996 my 106 was kicked in along the side damaging the wing, door and rear panel. it was quite bad but i couldn't afford to claim on my insurance due to excess and loss of ncd so i got a local bodyshop to repair it. a quote from a pug bodyshop was Â£1200 which included replacing panels where required but ended up paying about Â£570 for getting it filled in.

finish was perfect and you would never have known about the damage. i was a bit sceptical as the car was only 4 months old when it happened but the end result was perfect.
