Hi all, can anybody help I'm just in the middle of replacing my fuel filler pipe on my touring I've noticed my inner wheel arch is rotten in places as far up as around the filler hole and most of the bottom section is now missing as I've pulled it out, can I get a replacement panel or do I have to make my own repair panels? I've looked and can only find small replacement sections where the inner and outer arches meet
Thanks scott

Bmw only for whole panel.
Comes in two halfs, there is the very most inner (where the shock absorber goes through) and then the next panel is the inner that joins on to the outer (more common to rust)
Picture should explain better

Thanks for the reply,yer item number 6 is the one I'm after the inner panel to join with the outer wheel arch, has anybody purchased one on here? I've got rust around the filler hole aswell and above and on real oem it doesn't show this part of the panel? I'm looking for the filler hole part as I feel this will be harder to remake myself then the lower section of inner arch, hope this makes sense
Cheers Scott

Yeah I bought one for the drivers side.... the filler hole side is everything from the middle seam to where the outer lip attaches. My inner most is rotten also but I'm cutting out the rust and patching that
