where can i get smooth wings for my mk1

[Guest]

hi, i have had the mirrors taken out of the wings of my mk1 escort, leaving holes... and i dont realy want to fill them or leave holes, so i was just wondering if you could buy wings with out holes? cheers, lucas

Are you talking about the mirrors that you some times see halfway down the wing around the wheel arch area, if you are all wings come without the holes, don't think those mirrors were ever standard fit. I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong

If you're so bothered about filler, just weld a reeaaaally small piece of steel in the gap..

Be a lot cheaper and less hassle than new wings

stick a bit of gaffa tape over the holes

 

Seriously though, as suggested, weld the hole up.

just taper the hole inwards (not to much) then tack weld (about 8-10 tacks) a peace or steel the size of a 2p then grind and light skim of plod.job done.

Hmm let me see, £250 per wing or weld em up ? Not hard to decide is it.

[Danmex]

Or you could scrap yours and buy an Escort that didn't have the mirrors fitted, thats probably the easiest option

[Guest]

scrap it? i would rather shuv wasps up my arse.

 

yeah p40 sounds like a plan!!

 

cheers guys.

if u dont weld it up and just fill it, it will fall out when the metal expands in the warm weather,

 

not that we get any
