you sure its the cross member, i think c`s are prone to rust on the front panel behind the bumper but i dont think its that much of a big deal

 

(hope not as mine was wire brushed and waxoyled 2 years ago)

Mine is rusty as heck too, but the actual structural bit is welded to it and is actually still fine, it's just the bit below it that's rusty.

isnt the cross member the same on Golf mk2s? im sure you could just order a new one at a low price or eventually find a better one at a scrapyard off a decent jetta (jetta always better!)

sorry if i put it the wrong place i didnt know where to place it

 

but no its rusty by where it bolts on to the chassis and belive me its rotton i can break it up with my hand my dealer said mk2 golf are different and corrado ones cost £860.47 + vat (late c £910.47 +vat) might scrap yet if i cant find one hopefully will to good to scrap
