Re: Boot Lid resprayed when new.. help

When the issue was originally raised at the first dealer why didn't they query VW at the factory? Apparently they couldnt check at the VW factory without sending off pics of the damage along with a paint depth reading... which is a shame it could have saved me 2 trips (30 miles each way!) Ive pushe...

Re: Boot Lid resprayed when new.. help

My 2 cents. After a proper respray it will be as good as new and you'll have nothing to worry about. As long as the job is done properly no-one will every know it's been done. Many new cars are damaged in transit and so it's not unusual for this kind of thing to happen. My advice? Get it sprayed. m...
