Default Silver Drivers Side (o/s) front Wing for 2003 V40

Started to get rust spots on the drivers side (o/s) wing on my 2003 V40 Sports Lux. It looks like they just bolt on (is that correct?) and if so I would like to replace it before it gets too bad. Obviously the "new" wing must be clear of rust.

I scrapped one two weeks ago. Fail!

They are bolt on.

Four on the inner wing.
One in the door shut.
One behind the bumper
Two underneath
Two for the mudflap/arch liner

Not sure whereabouts in Lincs you are, but I'd recommend A6 Autospares in Leicester (Google it - you'll find a link to his ebay contact details with a phone number) - I've bought a few bits from him and found him to be honest and reliable. If your in North Lincolnshire there's a couple of eBay sellers in Grimsby who seem to have a good selection of parts - would be well worth an email to see what they have in stock.

+1 for A6 Autospares. He's a spot on guy and always a pleasure to deal with.

I bought my spare T4 engine from A6 autospares and would highly recommend him.

Also TJ Stone volvo spares are top notch.
