Door for X308

Postby gjh007 » Sat Apr 20, 2024 11:06 am

Good morning all. I was hoping to see if anyone had come across a good condition rear passenger door for a X308? Any colour, as I'll be having some paint done but finding a good condition door is a challenge. I just need the bare metal door as I have a good door card, waist seal, electrics etc. I'm looking for black trim rather than chrome and am near Gatwick in terms of location. Any help would be much appreciated.

gjh007,

As expected, lots on eBay. One in Crawley for just £40!

I only just realised that I hadn't provided an update on this... I did find a door in decent condition locally from ebay the same day that I posted this, and got it fitted and the paintwork done by a really good bodywork specialist near Gatwick. It needed a couple of polishes after that and it's now totally blended in with the rest of the car. I also found a signwriter in Brighton who was able to do coachlining and pinstriping, so I was also able to keep that part of the paintwork as it was originally intended too. All good in the end...
