panels are readily available from lots of cars being broken

yeah but there's lots which are far worse condition than mine.... and t.b.h there's not many LC5L mk3 5doors around!

oh and to update the thread.... the guy that was selling me the panels seems to of disappeared (I last heard from him same day he was bringing them to me!)  :huh: :shocked: :angry:

and I don't chase people when I'm buying!

As long as it is a close match then just replace the panels.

Doors are an absolute pain to change! Well at least to get the fit right again.
