    German Auto Parts also have a great selection of parts

    International Orders:

    We gladly accept international orders but please be aware that all orders shipped outside the United States must total at least $50.00. This minimum order size also applies to shipments to APO and FPO addresses but does not apply to shipments to Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands or other United States Territories.

    What I'm looking at:

    Front bumpers and maybe front spoiler:

    New Door Locks:

    Any other sources for these parts or any others I need on my list would be great.

    GAP is one of the best oversea parts suppliers, now its' even better cos they used to have minimum oversea order of US$100. Be careful about door lock, US spec car may be diff from ours.

    Shipping cost for bumper is killing though.

    They look a little strange (should be wider at the back not the front) with G60's on the front and standards on the rear, I toyed with the idea myself and then saw a pic of one.

    Problem is with 5drs you cant fit G60 rear arches without panel mods.

    Yeh I'll think Ill stick with the pre 89 arches and find the thicker side door trim. I've seen the 3 door ones on ebay UK but I'll have to badger the seller for aus shipping. then i'll make an alteration for a 5 door.

    Also I've got some smoked lights (indicator and rear lights) and a complete original set of arches and side skirt (one shorter then the other) if anybody is after them. Also save that dash Redmk2gti, I'll have it. Cracks in mine are HUGE!!!

    I was looking up shots of G60 arches and came across with forum:

    http://retrorides.proboards.com/inde...y&thread=43690

    I wonder how hard it is to do the conversion. I'm not going full on with it, just toying with the idea.

    Great to hear yay's or nay's

    What conversion are you talking about? Big bumpers to small bumper? I have a mate with a mk2 cl (small bumper) he might be up for a swap if thats the conversion you are talking about.

    As far as i know g60 rear arches arnt any bigger than standard, there was a thread about it a while ago.
