Crispy Squirrel 0 Posted February 19, 2012 So I need a new front left indicator cover (next to fogs) and a new straight bar that sits directly under the lights and grill. Any idea on the best way to get a new correct coloured bar ? Cover ? Dealers ? suppliers etc ? will a garage do it ? Luckily he's paying. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Portent 0 Posted February 19, 2012 Isn't the "bar" actually part of the slam panel? Mine has an annoying small dent in it which came with the car, I guess it was a similar accident in the past. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Storm Guy 0 Posted February 19, 2012 Yep - take out a headlight and youll soon see the extent of the 'bar'. Any pics as to how dented it actually is? Good job he's paying. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crispy Squirrel 0 Posted February 20, 2012 so the 'bar' doesn't just run under the light it runs to the back of the car ? EEK . Ok so how about taking it out hammering it flat again respray ? Its gunna look poo- but I don't want him to pay loads... How much would a new 'Bar' Cost ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vw_john 10 Posted February 20, 2012 The bar, is part of the slam panel, as you can see, http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VW-CORRADO-LATE-TYPE-DRAGON-GREEN-FRONT-PANEL-SLAM-PANEL-/260940530393?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item3cc14482d9#ht_880wt_952 not going to be a quick job getting it out Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stonejag 10 Posted February 22, 2012 Great, there's another thing to replace in the respray. Mine has a big kink in the driver's side 'strut' (between headlight and grille), it's so close to 90 degrees I thought it came like that! :bonk: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
