Auto Panels 4U

[Cameron 16]

Seeing as my Miami has a fair bit of rot around the headlights and front panel I had been planning to go and cut the bits I need off a good shell, but I just stumbled across these guys - Auto Panels 4U and they sell the bits I need at really good prices! £70 for a whole front panel seems too good to be true, so has anybody dealt with these people before? I'm not doubting whether they're a legit seller, just what the quality of their parts is like. After all, I don't want to go through the pain of replacing the front panel just for it to rust through in a couple of years!

 

If this place is no good, can anyone recommend a good place to get quality panels from? I don't mind paying a bit more if it means better quality parts!

most bits for the front end afaik are still available from Peugeot, £125 for both sides, lower crossmember is £20

 

main trick to getting any of them to last though is the prep and finish, I think pattern parts only rust faster because the primer isn't as good, and many don't bother to paint over properly.

I got some wings of here before: clicky seemed good quality, was a few years back.

 

£40 odd from there for the complete front panel.

How much of a pain in the arse is it to do the front panel, I'm sure you've seen my slightly wonky one Paul

Well I decided to go for it and get the front panel from them, handily they're located about 20 mins from me so I can hopefully collect it at some point next week. I'll post a pic of it once I have it.

They are Hadrians panels, i recognise the diagrams and part numbers as i also sell them.

 

Happy to do deals for members.

I guess they're a distributor for Hadrian then? I did have a go at ordering from the Hadrian site then realised they're the manufacturer and it's more of a distributor search than actually buying the part online.. you leave your details and a distributor will contact you.

 

I think those generic screenshots are actually taken from Peugeot's Servicebox website, hence why everyone uses them.
