a stupid woman reversed into my beautiful mini rose, bashing the side and braking the wheel arch!

I am trying to keep the car as original as possible so i need to find a new nimbus grey wheel arch to get my bodywork man to fit (stupid woman is paying needless to say!)
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
:w00t:

Just get him to replace them all, they're cheep enough, easy enough to fit and they will all then match in colour.

For some reason the nimbus grey wheel arches are more expensive

WHY?

That statement contradicts itself :nugget: :dontgetit:


How can they be the same and yet different colours, that would mean they are not the same as they are different colours :smartass: :fear:

Easy, 'because they're an absolute SOD to find. *Speaks from experience* Thus anyone who has them is gonna mark 'em up price-wise. I generally hit show auto-jumbles for things like that as a result.

You can pick 'em up like that, but I wasn't lucky enough to find any when I needed them thus the guys who did Monty up for me had to source them and charged me the Earth for 'em.
