These wings came off my donor truck, didn’t realise how bad they were untill I removed the plastic arch trim….still better than the ones on mine.

I’ve been a panel beater for 11 years now starting when I was 16, finally tooled up at home now enough to take on repairs.

Thought I’d show some pictures of how it’s done.

If anyone wants their wings repaired pm me. I understand it’s hard to find people willing to work on stuff like this (and I don’t mean just mesh and filler) I’m in Aberdeenshire.

Do I remember you saying you had some wings that needed repaired?

Think I've asked a couple of times lol.
May be worth me dropping you a message.
 
That is nice work indeed. I may drop you a PM in the future as I am certain my wings need some love
 
Good job! Mine is going in on Monday for top and bottom wing repairs under the bloody plastic arches! Getting both sides done. I hope he does as good a job!

Nice job, can't beat doing a bit of panel repair. Do like a bit of tin bashing
