I needed a new wing for my 2 door metro, but the only one they had in same colour was off a five door, metro. They assured me at the scrappy that they are the same size, which i kinda thought was right as the bonnets are the same right?. But after putting it on there appears to be a bigger gap from the door to the wing, is this poor adjustment on my half?. Or is it, that the wing off a five door is slightly smaller?.

Regards

Nope, the wings are all the same size on both 3drs and 5drs. Just typical Rover fit and finish I suppose.

loosen up the bolts that go inside the bonnet, on the top rail.and pull the wing towards the door, it improves the fitting a lil but before you do this you may want to check you have all the bolts fitted, as it wont sit correctly other wise!
