Title: Need good tailgate and rear bumper / panel
Post by: vwnut on October 04, 2014, 11:09:41 am

From the title of this you can probably guess what has happened. My son's totally mint L reg red G40 was rear ended yesterday by a friendly Land Rover driver. The Land Rover was unmarked but the G40 needs replacement:

Tailgate (ideally in Tornado red, but not critical),
Rear bumper (bottom section will be painted Tornado red anyway)
Boot floor pulled out slightly (up to spare wheel well) and probably replacement rear panel (bugger as original still has the original VW sticker inside).
I think rear smoked lights are OK, but I still need to check

Does anyone have any good replacements (genuine VW) I can buy - help please?!

Land Rover driver is paying for the repairs!

You can get a genuine tailgate from classicparts.de still.

If you speak to vw heritage and give them the part number, 871827025B

Here it is, but 325 euros though. Heritage should sort you out though.

Think this is a new rear bumper (320 euros) as well:
