Rear wings.

Post by midget »

Might seem a dumb question but I'm tearing my hair out trying to fit inner wing repair panel/wing/quarter panel to my 2 door.
Are rear wings the same on 2 and 4 door cars? The 2nd hand one I have bought seems way too short, and didn't think there was a difference between them, but maybe they are. Obviously the front doors on a 4 door are shorter, but wings????

This wing was off a 4 door fitted to my 2 door.

Did you buy a traveller wing in error?

Don't know the heritage or the model type (bought purely to facilitate inner wing/1/4 panel/rear of outer sill section/ flange repair) from a mate who had one knocking about. I am eventually fitting a G/F replacement when happy with fit, so bought this wing as it had a good flange to line everything up.
Sort of got it now, but still not perfect--lot of fettling to do. Are the trav wings shorter then?
