Re: WANTED: Spare Wheel Well

Best bet for a D8 coupe one, but a D9 will more than likely be the same (Only very small trim differences)

Would be Ade, BB Auto's in Chesterfield
or the Facebook group Coupe or 406.

A 90 is Siemens fueling & mechanical boost control with no intercooler. HDi tuning can supply you two levels of re-map 1st 125bhp no supporting mods needed ...

Re: Parts compatibility

I was going to make some billet alloy ones for the rear of my 98 Coupe but I had to sell her before it happened :(
