acf8181 0 Posted May 7, 2005 Report Share Posted May 7, 2005 i would hunt for a perfect condition second hand tailegate in the same colour as your car so you can just throw it on and smile. make sure it's got glass in though as its bonded in (and have to be a gti/vr6/driver as it has holes for spoiler) Link to post Share on other sites
stu h 0 Posted May 7, 2005 Report Share Posted May 7, 2005 what acf said. try and get a late one if possible as they (i think) were galvanised/better protected for rust Link to post Share on other sites

antera309 3 Posted May 24, 2005 Report Share Posted May 24, 2005 Avoid the non-genuine new tailgates from GSF, ECP etc. The fit is terrible.A second-hand one from a later-model (N reg or newer) Golf is a better bet. If you can get one with the correct colour tinted glass, so much the better. Link to post Share on other sites
