MG Midget and Sprite Technical - Repair panels

Does anybody sell repair panels for the front wings?
Specifically the section just under the drivers light. Both of mine have large holes here which cannot be easily filled/covered.
BH Harvey

I was considering cutting up scrap wings. But the prices are high.

I don't think anyone does a repair for that bit.
I fabricated a patch-in panel myself for mine But its a complicated shape to get right - I had to do a bit of smoothing over with metal filler.

Generally you need to go a few inches beyond the rust through to get to solid metal. Personally, I'd be looking for some replacement wings.
Trevor Jessie

I have to agree with trevor

Id think it would take alot to fix your current fender ... just get a good used wing off ebay, or call around to the usual MG suspects... far easier to just paint and stick good used fender on the car plus wouldnt need alot of work.... a good weekend project

plus it also looks like its messed up on the other corner edge of the fender also and the grill surround looks a bit hacked up also.

I found this in the classifieds of our BBS


midget front wing

Right hand front wing for a 1500 MG Midget, not perfect but very useable. Needs a bit of cleaning up in places, a little surface rust here and there and a bit of corrosion at the valance joint but nothing major, treated and painted it would be ready for use. Complete with headlamp bowl and wiring £30
