How much is a genuine wing these days ?

right

Pattern parts wise there isn't much in it even new bmw wings need fettling to fit right these days.

The last pattern wing I bought I had lop off quarter inch of metal where it bolts to behind the door hinge ! That was just to get it flush with the door!!

Best off with good second hand if it came off a car the fit was ok and expect to Repaint..

Recently Fitted 2 genuine wings to one I had in for a respray, no problem and good quality. I would only buy pattern if BMW don't make it, or the customer insists on cheaper panels.

It depends what you want, the E21 panels i picked up from cleaveland panels seem to be petty good.
