Priced wings for this car. It's the original origami shape. £56! Each! The original 214 and the bubble shape? £20 + VAT. What's going on there? Admittedly I have only tried the one place so far, but it does not bode well. Anyone know a cheap supplier of body panels?
There's no longer the demand so there's not shelves of them and a panelmaker will have to do a one off run which costs them more.
So why does the even older model only cost £20?
No longer the demand? I would have thought they are the age where demand would be peaking, as they are 10-13 years old and just starting to rot through.
In any case, yes they do seem to be steep, just checked Beevers website and the RRP is £76, so your £56 isn't that bad.
However they are bolt-on and there's a lot of these cars in the breakers' yards. As far as I can tell damage is more of an issue than rust (mine are pretty sound apart from all the dings; it's the rear wings that rust), so you might be lucky down your local scrappy.

Because they've still got some in stock, which they want to clear, because there's none of the cars left.
Try Red Bull.
