WHEEL ARCH WELDING
This is an update from a previous post.
I have had my wheel arches done at Alexanders in Pemberton, Wigan
He has done a fabulous job and I would reccomend him to anyone
needing wheel arches done.
In Widnes I was quoted £400 to £500 for each panel. He did the job for
£250 (both panels) plus I had bought the Wheel arches for £75.
Unfortunately I do not know how to insert pics (HELP)

Re: WHEEL ARCH WELDING
It cost me £600 for both, he had to fabricate the metal shape by hand, and unfortunately it kinked by the fuel flap. The guy said, "Oh I could have done a perfect job but not for that cost". I'd have liked the option.

Re: WHEEL ARCH WELDING
Excellent price for a good result - I reckon he'll have a few more Bongo owner enquiries
Did the price include spraying to blend (invisibly?) with existing paintwork?

Re: WHEEL ARCH WELDING
Looks a great job, mine is getting ready for this work, but where do you get the wheel arches from for £75?

They are panels from Fort Transit 2000-2006 (LWB) Part Nos 3053508/3053509
I had to order mine through a dealer as they do not deliver private. They will tell you your nearest dealer.
They need to be cut to fit
Best of luck.

Re: WHEEL ARCH WELDING
Hi all
Still not got my arches done.
Does anyone have contact details for Alexanders, as they appear to have built up a good reputation for Bongo body reapirs on here and they do not seem to be on the database.
Cheers
