Hi all, I've just bought a 108 vito and on closer inspection both inner wings have rusted beyond repair. I can not find these replacements anywhere and don't really know if they are called inner wings. Any help much appreciated.
Cheers Pete,would these have to be the same triangular shape as what's in there or can they be straight to the bulk head for example if I had steel box section put in. They only attach to the top of the wheel arch them to the bulkhead and it only holds 1 wing bolt.
they will be shaped the way they are for a reason, but the reason may be for the fitment of different engines to the same chassis. its difficult to tell on the pic where exactly the issue is, but ive repaired similar sorts of damage in the past simply by overlaying the original panel with new metal, 1 side at a time and seam welding it all round so that the original is encased in new metal. from what you say, I see no reason why a straight box section couldn't work, but be aware of other parts that fit in, around, and to the area that may be affected, light headlights, bumpers, air boxes, etc.
