Hi, My old boy (yes Bongo's a boy) has the all too familiar rust around the wheel arches and needs new panels. both the inner arches and the outer. I have found the outer replacement parts (£89 for the pair) but can anyone tell me if I can get, the prefabricated inner arch panels & if so from where? Thanks

Not seen the inners available. If you havent already bought your outer arch panels do a search on fleebay under Sprinter arch repair panels. They are available at 28.00 quid a pair. I bought a pair and the quality seems good enough.
I haven't got round to fitting them yet but depending on the shape of the wheelhouse inner you may be able to modify a second pair to make up the inner box. Not saying that it would be easy but it may be a way out. [-o<

Inner wheelarches are in two pieces and are available from Mazda dealers at around £120 per side

Please let me know if you find a decent body shop in East Sussex, ie at sensible prices..


This may be of interest to you: Russ and his guys have been looking after us for three years now, they know their Bongos and charge a fair price for thorough work..
