what do new pattern wings fit like?

[Richy12]

Its for a mk2 as the genuines aren't available for boths sides. Is there much issues getting them to line up and fit right? Hear different stories all the time.

Depends how anal you are :)
I think there rubbish both other people may be happy with them.

Some good and some bad. At the end of the day it's a nova, and 100 + for a gen wing is laughable. But each to there own.

Buy one test fit it and if it's ****e return it and swap, ideally you want the car outside to keep trying them lol

[Edd]

I think £100 for a genuine wing is a good price tbh, they've always been around that

Mk2 pattern wings are a bit hit and miss really, hand some years ago that were just mk1 wings with a bit welded on to go under the indicators lol utter crap

Few years later I got some that were a very good fit

Genuine wings back in the day were £60-£70 each iirc from vauxhall

I have a pattern wing, its still not a great fit. Was terrible when I first lined it up, could've got my head in the pannel gap.

yep, so £100 now is pretty good

[brainsnova]

I had one where the gap between the door and wing was over 10mm

Generally, the cheaper the panel the more work to adjust, bash, fill to make it look right. I depends whether its a daily or a show one really. Pattern is fine for general use and a genne one is a waste for a daily.

I have 2 patern wings on mine and are actually quite a good fit not as good as the genuine but still very good cost me 50euro each iirc

Why go to hassle to make a copy wing with all the tooling then they are **** fit

i have exactly the same problem daily when i'm fitting pattern exhausts and i have to finish building them to make them fit right :wall:

[blue_peg_16v]

I have pattern on the saloon and there a very good fit but weren't the cheapest you can get, but there was a pattern one on the van when I got it and it was terrible
