Hi Guys.
A few months ago i bought my A4 Saloon 2008 B8 it is Ice Silver LX7W. I got it at a cheap price due to rusting arches.
The other day i had a slight bump and i was thinking of repairing it myself cheaply rather than claim on my insurance. This would give me an excuse to replace both of the wings. Looking at the accident damage i think i can get away with painting the bumper and replacing the damaged wing. The light and bonnet seem fine too. Also replace the rusty wing on the other side.
What is the cheapest option for repairing this myself? I already have a mismatch of paint with the front wings as i think they have been previously painted.
Buy genuine second hand wings in the correct colour.
Buy genuine second hand wings in any colour and get them painted.
Buy non genuine wings and get them painted once fitted.
Buy pre painted non genuine wings
