if you want to keep the wood then, best bet is find a breakers with a 3dr GTI and get replacements from there, the wood trims can go for silly money on flea bay.

alternative is to swap it out for the R32 rushed ali, again expensive, or you can paint them (i'm in the process of doing this myself (pics will be posted in the MK4 section))
