Plot twist.....

Found a parts car in Steinbach! Let's buy it

[SixerFixer]

Not sure if I need an entire car; mostly just after a passenger-side fender liner, passenger-side taillight, and possibly some better door/trunk seals!

Just picked up some euro bumpers for mine :)

Do you want my old diving boards and front airdam?
