front wing replacement

[hilly64]

both front wings have significant rust patches around the wheel arch. Didn't look too bad to begin with but now starting to really show. Its a 4 runner so no doubt down to time spent in our climate as the imports seem to fare far better.

Spoke to a couple of body shops and the general thoughts are that it would be better to replace wings as any cosmetic work would rust and show in no time. The rest of the truck is pretty good for its age (94)

Are wings readily available and easy to fit?

There seems to be a water trap between plastic wheel arch extensions and wing itself. Is it advisable to seal these with a silicone type product?

thanks

Very easy to fit, mudflaps and side lights out, unbolt it and away in comes. As the manuals say, refitting is reverse of this procedure... What colour are you after? Got a set of grey ones here...

[hilly64]

Fitting is dead easy, I had to replace mine after a wee bump.
