    I was having the same problem.....

    EBAY!!

    I got my coilovers from the uk $500 Deliverd!! (9 day delivery)
    Poly Bushes all round (replaces every bush in the car) from the uk $260 deliverd
    Alloys from Gold Coast $150 pick up
    x2 door handles - eurocarparts.com.au - look for the vw clearance section $50 deliverd Euro car parts have loadsa stuff so browse through
    most things can be repaired locally, dashes can get remade/coverd seat can be retrimmed, exhaust can be made, only issue im having is sourcing window rubbers but i managed to remove them without damaging them but could still do with a refresh!



    but go on ebay and select worldwide (available to Australia) contact the seller and they are always willing to post to Aus.

    Phil.
