Headlamp Cowl/Eyebrow RH

#1 Post by fastblatt »

So I bought this dolomite in March and I was told it was solid, which it is, 'cos the p/o cut out all the rot behind the headlights. Can't belive how many different panels there are in the area. I've identified that I need the inner front valance panel for the off side which I can get from the club, (p/o has repaired the n/s with fiberglass, done a good job but it was nowhere near as bad as the o/s is) but I need the Headlamp Cowl/Eyebrow RH, an inner panel that goes around the insde of the wing and upper front valance. The brothers do one but its 100 quid (jaw drops). By the time I would have bought everything this would start to be very expensive. Anyone know a better soloution. Also the club inner valance repair panel is a little short. Brothers want 150 for the full thing. anyone got one of those hidden away that they want to part company with. (just missed one at a good price on the bay :? )

Head lamp cowl/eyebrows now available in GRP at £35 each inc delivery. New stock being received w/c 18/07

The inner valance repair section extends past the point where the inner wing meets it, so its an inch or so, perhaps two more than you can see from inside the wheelarch looking forwards.

Having just fitted a full club GRP front end to a 1500 FWD, i can tell you the quality and fit is spot on. And far better to have the eyebrows in GRP, they are very rot prone and not structural.
