MG MGA - Fender/Mudguard

I recently did a silly thing by reversing out of a parking bay and seriously denting the RF fender/mudguard just above the wheel arch on a shade cloth upright support pole. Can anyone advise (with part number and supplier) if it possible to purchase a front section of the RF wing that can be welded to the remaining "good" section to the rear of the wheel arch?

Joe,
Check the usual suppliers Moss motors, Scarborough Faire, Clarke spares, etc. I don't know the exact parts you are wanting but splash panels and dog-legs are available for repair. Sounds like a good body repair man might be in order and required for your situation.

Hope it works out.

Check E-Bay for parts. It would be cheaper to get a "new" used fender and just bolt it on. Scarborough has used parts for sale. I had a fender damaged and I just removed the old fender and bolted on the new, but the cost then was about $50.00

Take it to a body shop, it can be beaten out. Two years ago a stupid woman backed out of a parking space straight into my (stationary) car (didn't look at all, even with a car load of kids, so just as well I wasn't driving a big truck!), and pushed the front fender in all the way to the wheel (headlight rim included) as he only stopped and looked when whe was trying to push the whole car sideways!

The bodyshop was cr*p at painting (took three tries to do it without dirt or spots in the paint) but did a great job of beating it out without using huge amounts of bondo - even underneath it looks great.
