Whats the best place to buy replacement body panels for rust repair like sills for the mk3 polo?

2nd'd

I think places like Euro Car Parts and GSF can get the Hadrians repair panels, any decent motor factor should be able to source them really.

i would go for gen ones.
you might have to pay a bit more for them but i would say its worth it.
I had to replace the front wings on mine and thought i would by non gen ones.
what a hassel i had getting them to fit properly, i had to bend them into shape and pack in behind them so that i could get my doors open and so they were flush with the doors and bonnet.

yeah non-genuine wings are a bit shit.  I had a new set and the fit and general quality of them was terrible.  Sourced a pair of decent 2nd hand genuine ones and threw the new pattern ones in the bin.

For something like a sill though, you'll have to cut and bend it anyway so I can't see it being much of an issue, not like it's a bolt-on part, once it's the right shape and welded in place you'll not tell.

true enough.
