Original mk1 Jetta wings desperately required

Post

Hope somebody can help.

About to start restoring my 1980 mk1 Jetta, and the only genuine panels that I can't source are the wings!!

I've heard that the pattern ones from heritage are shockingly poor quality.

Thanks

Eurowagens stock them cheaper than VW Heritage but they're more than likely from the same manaufacturer.

Have you still got your original wings? you could always make repairs to them using sections from non-genuine golf or jetta wings if you can't source any NOS VAG ones.

What are your welding skills like?

Have you thought about buying repro  and cutting out the bits of the wings you need to repair your originals? That way you keep the original lines which are the problem with repro wings.
I've done it before and then lead loaded the repair to get a solid sealed joint without the requirement of filler.

Non existent yomp!

My Jetta is about to go for a major restoration, and the guy that is doing it has recently tried to get pattern wings from vw h to fit. After 6 hours he flung them in the skip. He has now converted his Jetta to a round headlight front and used mk1 golf original wings and adapted them at the base!

I want to keep mine factory standard, hence the need for genuine panels.

Thanks anyhow

Do you have pictures of your wings you can post to see how bad they are?
