Replacement Parts

In many cases, replacement parts are delivered only in the "basic version" for parts reduction.

Examples:

• Audi 100 from MY 1991 roof without roof rail holes.

In these cases, we recommend that the workshop creates "patterns" from damaged parts.

Example: from MY Audi 100 1991 roof rail holes:

• Cut out side part from roof with the body repair saw (V.A.G 1523 A), observing prominent contours, e.g. a part of the depression (rain gutter), when doing so. Deburr cut edges and protect with fabric-reinforced adhesive tape.

Apply patterns before painting and allow for the material strength of the pattern when marking the bore holes.

Check new replacement parts, such as doors, panels or fenders for transport damage before sending to paint shop. This prevents double painting, if transport or accident damage to the vehicle is noticed during assembly.
