front and rear wings ?

[lippychick]

this may sound very stupid but as a complete newbie when it comes to restoration can you fit wings from a 2dr to a 4dr or are they completely different ??

All saloon wings the same, only Travellers had different rear wings, but still the same fronts.....

[lippychick]

sweet thank you very much :0)

Except for Series MM lowlight fronts and Series MM and Series 11 rears.

So - in fact - there are 3 different rear wings and 2 different fronts! And that's not counting the various fibreglass wings available from Jon at JLH

lol ok im not sold on fibreglass i would like to put on steel wings if i get the chance so now im just gonna look for some good but cheapish s/h wings as they will definately beat whats on mine now

[bmcecosse]

Well - you may find the fibreglass ones are an 'affordable' alternative - and they won't rust!

[lippychick]

but which are the better option ?

I have seen some nice pics of the jlh wings thank you for the link..

umh! really down to personal choice.. glass fibre wings are cheaper and if you intend to keep the car long term and you are happy with glass fibre go for it.. however if you think you might sell the car in the near future I would say fit steel wings.. it will give the buyer one less thing to haggle you down on price.

But good second-hand steel wings are hard to find - simply because 'everyone' is trying to find them! But it is very much personal choice.

A good quality fibreglass wing from the likes of JLH is a sensible option. When you consider the sometimes questionable quality of some new steel wings on offer I know what I'd fit.
