Title: Mk2 lower rear section
Post by: Pearce69 on 03 October 2010, 18:21

Hey guys i have a 1987 gti and its got rust on both bottom corners and along the very bottom bit of the bumper, iv seen this part from bigboystoys but i was wondering if anyone knew if the corners (bit near exhaust and bit near tow eye) come with it. I know they do repair sections on this but im all confused lol.

heres the pic from the site

And heres the back of my car

Oh and also what would be cheaper to do? get repair bits and get them welded on and get bottom bit cut out and new bit of metal welded? or get the bit in the pic and put on (if the side bits are on it)

Also does anyone know if the front wings from these guys are a good fit?

Price will depend on who's doing it, its a lot of prepping and welding to put in the whole rear panel, cutting out a section *might* be quicker.

Someone did this in the dub project, but I can't remember who it was (maybe phil88?)

I think it was phill88 - have a scout through here - his war against rust is epic!
