what’s going on guys cheeky little video on a mk2 Ford Focus front wing repaint and replacement.
I’ve used non genuine new wings and they fit ok but not perfect, is always good to trial fit new panels before painting them just incase the need modifying to fit.
I brought the wings off eBay and paid £100 delivered for both.
customer only wanted the wings painting and didn’t want to pay for blending into next panels so let’s see how the colour match is.

Thank you for the video. Nice job done there and a very quick turnaround so the customer should be very happy. I think you're being too hard on yourself. A 100% perfect colour match is impossible on a 15 year old metallic car where the newly painted replacement panels are next to 15 year old body coloured painted metal and plastic surfaces. As you rightly said the adjacent areas ideally need to be blended in. If the owner's not willing to pay for that then they have to accept there might be a slight shade difference. In any case, I thought it turned out just fine 👍.

Thanks Karl mate, yes definitely any paint that’s 15 years old has either faded or sun bleached. I like to put mint jobs on the channel but I’m honest so they all go on here. Appreciate the comment sir 👍👍

How do you remove the old wing right. The bolt between the door and panel needs to removed from inside, where the container for the sprinklersystem are placed. So that needs to be removed?

Hi bud welcome to the channel and thank you for the comment, glad you enjoyed the video. I brought the wings off eBay, pair of wings was £120 posted I watched them for a couple of days and the seller sent me an offer of £100 posted on both. Pride on paint depends if you can do it your self or if you go to a garage. If you went to a few local garages and asked them to paint both wings off the car so you fit yourself I think you should be able to get both done for around £250 at the right garage.

Hey hey, he's back !!! 😁Had a wing rot out in the same place on my A3. On the A3, it's a 5 inch pocket trap for silt. anyways, had a new wing and had it blended into the door ... colour match is bang on ... Audi Lava grey ...which is a pearl finish I believe. Would have been worth your guy paying the extra for blending i think. BTW, watch your audio levels dude... music is way louder than the voice over

Hey bud yes sorry for the delay 👍👍 dirt definitely sits behind the wings a rots them out. Ooo that lava grey is a nice colour. The match wasn’t to great I do understand he didn’t want to spend to much on a older low value car but I wasn’t keen on looking at the colour so far out 😩.. thank you for the audio tips I will do my best to fix that for next video 👍👍
