Title: MK5 Panel value?
Post by: JregGT on May 20, 2013, 01:30:52 pm
Afternoon folks, just a quickie, what is people's general concensus on the value of mk5 panels? I think I'm too used to getting old polo panels for a tenner a hit!
I have found a fella breaking a shadow blue golf locally, and I thought it may be cheaper to swap the bonnet rather than have a chips away chap sort out a few dents it has!
So I just wondered what people thought the value of panels for mk5's were at, can't say I've really clocked my bonnets forsale individually.

Cheers Rich :happy2:

Well surely it's as simple as

A respray is like 200?
And if you buy the bonnet for say £150 then quids in?

Cheers for replies fellas, my bonnet only has a couple of 'dents' from an object hitting it on the motorway. So a whole respray isnt neccessary, was thinking more along the lines of a 'chips away' type of repair.

He is looking for £90 (i'm sure i paid that for an 89 polo coupe for spares once!), which if it is as good as it looks, sounds like it could be worth having!

Cheers for the quick replies fella.

Top work  :happy2:
