I've got a set that are for round headlight models in that condition so must be rarer

I am pretty sure you can get the newer style wings from nissan still but probably 300-400 quid+
Can't you get fibreglass ones now for the newer ones too??

Not sure

I was looking for plastics and saw those and was shocked

Yeah seen them and to be honest I bet they are rare.

I have a mate who is looking to scrap his Terrano Petrol primarily due to the high cost of 2 new wings.

The reason I parted with my old r3mR was as an import the wings were priced at around £900 each plus VAT new and it needed a pair plus painting !

Back in the day a good vehicle body repair shop would hand make the rotten arches and weld them in as good as new.

They still can, although slightly harder to find there's plenty of places that would fix it with fibrelgass.

There was a company selling the fibreglass ones for around £100 each.
I paid £35 for a mint condition mistral one.
Was from a mkII so I had to cut and modify it for the indicator
