    OK so last Sunday night I had the misfortune to reverse out of my drive and into the side of a Mk4 GTI. I left a note on it and what have you, the owner contacted me to tell me that he got a quote for the repair of €475. He was good enough to tell me that I could shop around for a better price if I wanted to.

    The panel that is damaged is the front drivers side wing and my question is the wing off a normal golf is the same as the GTI?

    That's super news George just what I wanted to hear :D.

    Now I just have to see if he will be happy with getting a wing from a Golf being broken :rolleyes:

    One more question. Were both 'satin silver' paint code LB7Z and 'silver arrow' paint code LG9R available in Ireland?
    Is the paint code printed on the car anywhere or will I have to call the dealer?

    Paint code should be in the service book and on the sticker under the Mat in the boot.

    even if you manage to pick up a 2nd hand panel the same colour chances are it will be a different shade to the car ;)
