Depends whether the inner is rusty as well mate.

 

[nige-p]

usually will need both mate

anyone got any pics of a fuel filler repair job?

im sure turbojay has done it in his diary

As said will usualy need both as if the outer is rusty the inner will have usually already gone

Normally if the outter is rusty then the inner needs changed to, i am in the middle of doing both, tbh for the price of an outer quarter panel i would just replace that, then the job is good for another 16 years if looked after.

It just as easy to replace the inner arch as it comes with the inner petrol part to. This is it

it wasn't that cheap, 149 euro here in Germany.

ive ordered both the panels from hadrians, but their images dont look anything like the above image.
any idea what the inner fuel panel ive ordered will be like??
theyre due to arrive on wednesday, then hopefully my bodyshop can get his finger out and do some work!

Not to sure what the inner one looks like but would imagine its like the pic but just the fuel surround.

Should do the job, i just found it easier to replace the whole inner arch as it wasn't looking too hot.

 

[turbojay]

yeah i replaced my arches,sills, and fuel filler surround, my inner ones didntneed doing, the were fine so lucky i guess as normally they do need sortingif the outside panel is funked.

 

[johnsastra16v]

the inner arches on my gsi are fine, so maybe the inner fuel panel is too. but i bought it just in case - was only £20

 

[johnsastra16v]

ive just realised, but that pic above is of the inside of the inner arch. not the outside of the inner arch.

i was wondering why the fuel filler bit looked so different
