Hi, joined almost 3- years ago, learnt so much from your fab site.
Bongo Friendee 2L petrol 2005. Chassis no starts GE.
We need a right rear weld-in wheel arch repair. I believe some old posts said Mercedes Sprinter 95-06 is the best fit.
Is this still the case ? Is this one on eBay correct ?

Anyone know of others ?
Thanks
Ronnie

You might find these are better as they are replacements designed for the Bongo

Many thanks Geoff. Are these recent ? I don’t recall seeing them before.

They have been around for a while 1-2 years maybe longer ?

I keep this list of companies based on reviews and comments I see at various sites;
These companies do a range of spares & repairs, not all will have everything so try them all;
For smaller parts its probably best to ring companies as not all the smaller parts make it on to the web sites!
