Do vauxhall still supply new parts for Cavalier mk3s?

[ronnie1995]

Hello there,
Last week my dads boss backed up into my car and put a nasty dent in the drivers side passenger door.
Are vauxhall still able to supply new doors? I've tried breakers but none of them have it in my colour.

Your help will be much appreciated.

No, fraid not. You'll have to keep looking around. Shame to hear what happened. Some people are just clueless..... Has he at least offered to pay for your repairs?

Ok thanks anyway. Yes, thank goodness, I wanted to see if i could get a replacement door instead as when repaired the paintwork will never look the same as a factory door.

Well if the rest of the shell is age-worn, the brand new resprayed door will stand out. So if you can find a donor car in the same colour, that would be the way.

You can pick up some bits, if I'm honest.. go in to a local deals and ask, you might be surprised and find the parts guy can locate bits. It won't be cheap from Vauxhall however.

How bad is the dent. Has the paint been damaged

If you try the likes of migweb you'll get someone breaking a Cav and then a decent body shop shud be able to paint it a gd match and blow the colour into panels each side!!

Therefore making it less noticeable

Blue, paint code 24l.

Rear, driver side.

Here is a picture of the damage, can't see it very well (stupid blackberry cameras). It looks a lot worse in real life, although have pushed the worst of it out and touched up the scrape mark (in the wrong blue).

You look like you might be in luck, looks identical to that.

Thats probably why they went so fast

Contrary to what Andrei said you can buy a lot of this stuff from the dealers, however, for a door you're looking at a lot of money, hundreds, and that's usually for the outer skin only. As Gaz says, you're better off hunting the scrappies, eBay and the forums and if you're lucky you'll find one the same colour!
