my O/S front wing has deteriorated very badly over this winter with rust all the way round ..
i'm gonna source another from breakers in any colour and give it to my local body shop to paint it then i can change it closer to summer

can i get a wing off a D9 ? are the D8 and D9 wing the same part number ?

(ive read this topic before but i cant seem to find it ....) so,,,, sorry for bringing it up again

They're not the same part number but I think the only difference is the hole for the indicator repeater, which might be a problem...

I believe the outside profile is identical - almost like the inside sections were "tacked" on to the design of the D8's so to speak
