nickrock Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 The owner of a panel shop I do work for has MANY minis including a genuine Ute ,so he often gets other peoples minis in for repairs ,he gets the panels from England they are here in a week also very reasonably priced ,cheaper than paying me to cut the bits out and make up patch panels 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
