Do you mean the rear panel above the exhaust, and behind the bumper, or just under the bumper on a SB car...

That's the one Thom, it looks like the rot started on the seam. I need the lower left of the rear and the lower corner of the rear quarter it joins.

Tidy car you have!

Thanks :wink:

I guess this is the panel that you've spotted, http://www.vwheritage.com/vw_spares_Rear-Valence-Golf-Mk2-below-badge-plinth_act_shop.product_pID_27552356_lang_EN_country_GB.htm
Its really easy to fit, with some basic tools, and a MIG welder.
Also worth closely checking out the bottoms of the rear 1/4 panels, that join to the lower rear panel, these are likely to equally rotten as well, they are also available as a repair panel. The Heritage panels I have fitted before, and are good quality German steel/pressings, worth sticking out for them, if still available!

To answer your original question you shoudl be able to get the repair panel from Hadrians panels or Eurowagens:

http://www.eurowagens.com/en/vw/golf-2-jetta-2/body-parts.html

http://hadrian.dominohosting.biz/hadrian/hcpdb01.nsf/PartNoDocID%2F1427E5E1A63EB5568025759D00787E49!EditDocument&Ret=ALL

I spent some time pricing up parts fro mine and found VW Heritage weren't a bad price

Or of course Ebay:
