Sorry to hear Dom. The main thing though is that your alright, i hope all goes well with the Insurance and repairs. What colour do you have in mind?

[dom123]

awesome news then.

Give the oppourtunity, I'd scrounge around for some extra cash, and get the whole lot resprayed!

exactly the plan dude, i meant decisions as in colour hmmmmm

i already have a passat cc code in mind...

Dom, I doubt they will list it as a unrepairable write off, the pinchweld seam is still straight as mate,( indicates the damage is only to the outer sill i have them here aftermarket ) If the insurance co deems it uneconomical to repair then buy the car back and have it fixed.

I have the door, new sill section and used but salvageable left rear quarter. You can tell the insurance Co, panel guy whatever but the metal is here to fix her. Only issue I can see is if the inside of the B pillar is bent inwards, I no longer have the internal section, only the external skin. Fingers crossed mate, Keep us in the loop bud.

Any car written off in NSW from 31st January 2011 is declared a statutory write off and can only be used for parts or scrap.

Fingers crossed it's not written off.

At least you're alright and escaped without injury.

If you can afford it, do the respray now. It'll be worth it.


I was devastated when I saw this, man. Super disappointing.

What you could do for me is look for the drivers side window chrome trim for me !!!???

OK have a LA car that is under salvage currently, LMK exactly which section of window trim your needing Dom.

Also anything else rocco specific your needing ?? Stuff will be shipped back with the next LHD rocco purchase sometime around January.

Assuming the door arrived ok seein I aint heard contrary ??

BUT If you are the last registered owner and have had it a while / or its a special car. You can apply with the RTA for a special exemption and it can then be permissable to repair.

Itching to see pics of this thanks Dom ......still in discussion with the guy in LA about parts but will find the missing trim piece.
