Hi all,
Basically, I have some damge to my N/S door on my '98 A3 that was there when I bought it. So, I'm after either a replacement in the right colour or getting it repaired. Obviously the former is preffered due to cost.
I've found one on the bay.. but my question is, what are the differences between my early car and a 2001? From the picture it seems the door handle is different (no key hole and a different shape recess) are there any other differences? As if that's it then I'll put up with it as it won't be too noticeable.
Also, does anyone have any experience with pre-painted parts online? I need a bonnet and front bumper too, and can get them for £320 painted and delivered. Not sure if that's any good...
Any help much appreciated.
