Kärt barn har många namn Losely translated: A loved child has many names..

Or wikiquote:
Translation: "A beloved child is called many things."
Meaning: Someone or something which is popular is often referred to by many different epithets.

Our beloved Fairway already has a GRP front os wing, and the ns has seen better days :twisted:

The "INNER WING FLITCH VALANCE" on both sides are tired to..

Is there a general concensus here re. GRP?

Not original...
No good in case of an accident...
Turns it into a Metrocab #-o (i have to confess i have a soft spot for'em :shock: )
Proper Job! Fit and forget...
Easy to get hold of compared to the original...
etc. etc.

I have to think twice before deciding as the lokal scrap yard is out of the question and postage is #-o :twisted:

any and all advice more than welcome :D

I think I'd prefer fibreglass to steel.
The original rust so fast that every time you take the taxi out it's a bit lighter than the time before.
It might be hard to keep paint on them though,the wings on a fairway bounce up and down like one of Russel Grants chins in the middle of a tango.
