Clio Front Wing Passenger Side Panel Price?

joe2cool

Hi just wondered how much it would cost for a new 'Renault Clio Front Wing Passenger Side panel' to be replaced at a garage. My wife had an accident with ice, so a few cracks & indicator cover broken off. Is it worth claiming on the insurance?

Appreciate any help /advice


Thx

Depends on the paint, But a new wing plus paint and labour could be in excess of £600.

depends on the year.. might hit lucky and get from from a breaker for around £30 in the right colour then maybe an hour to fit it

Hi luckily its not the metal part......cheers guys

Hi just been quoted........'The wing is £78.83

Paint materials will be £125.50 and £240 to paint & fit the part'.

Is this reasonable?

The indicator cover on the side wing was broken but the bulb was still in tact & working as usual. I've just put a temp plastic cover over to prevent water entry. Where do I stand legally at the moment with the light as it is?

Thx

Sounds huge. Is that main dealer?

On my Golf a local bodyshop supplied, painted and fitted a new wing with liner for £240

If it's any colour other than straight black you'll almost certainly need the door blending to match the colour.
Any bodyshop worth it's salt will have included that in the costing but I'd get conformation before you procede

Ok cheers....but this quote is without knowing the colour? will get a few more quotes.....

Breakers yard for a complete wing with fittings won't cost much. Pretty sure the front wings on 2000+ clios are plastic. There's plenty of them in breakers yards.

Hi...yes it is plastic............we wouldn't be able to fit it ourselves though.
