Yeah i've checked out Hardings & maybe i'm talking about a different section.I need the lower part that is the common rusted part above the bumper not the one behind the bumper,is that the one you guys are talking about?

My parents just moved back from america. I spent a fortune at Wolfsburg West on rust repair panels and rubber kits. If I was a little better prepared I would have bought more. They came back in their container.:bounce
