After a stonechip had decided to infiltrate my paintwork, and cause a patch of exposed metal on my wing, I decided to rectify the problem on Saturday and got down to doing this:

And with the new wing on, she's looking normal again...

And whilst I had the sideskirts off, I thought I'd give my sills a bit more protection...

Just bits and bobs I've wanted doing for a while and finally got round to doing it

Ohhhhh yes, bolt on, bolt off!

Wouldn't have done it if it was welded on :lol:

The hardest part was getting the fekkin arch liners back on properly as getting them off was a pain because they use stupid plastic screw clip thingies that you've got no chance unscrewing. Found some new clips in the local parts store that done the trick after I'd buggered all the rest though :lol:

I never understood why panels like this should be welded, suppose it's a way of making more dollar out of us for body repairs and the like :rolleyes:
