Post Quality of new 2cv doors?
Hi chaps,

After having the bodyshell attended too last year (also got a new set of wings & an almost perfect re-used bonnet) it is time to swap out bamboo's rotten doors.. they are knackered!

Has anyone seen a new set of doors that Uncle Roy is selling? Was wondering on the quality of them? Anyone seen any other alternatives to consider?

regards,

fritz

ps. I promise I will use bamboo more this year!

^ What he said. If they were pants, it'd say on the product page.

Hmm... "See notes" - that normally means "We're about to slag 'em off", but there are no notes.

Oh, and NORTH OF A GRAND FOR A SET OF FOUR...?

I'm _certain_ you can find some really, really, really good used ones for the price of ONE of those!

Probably, but, as an aside to the original question, wouldn't it be nice if 2cvers actually bought new panels instead of trying to buy a set of 'immaculate used panels' in 'highly specific colour scheme' and also 'must be within 12yds of my house' and 'cost no more than £20 the set'. With prices for cars as high as they are, it's probably about time that we did go to ECAS and buy a door once in a while, then pay a body shop to paint it.
