i wish my tailgate was fcuked then id have an excuse to get one. i can imagine them being quite a lot lighter ye? would get a bonnet but dont fancy paying that much tbh.

do you know what delivery is like with them by any chance? heard any bad stories about them?

No bad stories matey, they are a reputable firm and Iain is very helpful. Unsure on delivery I'd assume it would be a week or two at the most though.

Tailgate is one of the most 'economic' weight savings I think

EDIT- apart from cutting loads of metal out lol

Yes they are still available, if you have problems you could also try member 'duick' If you look in the traders forum you will see his ad for GM body panels and then you can spend to your hearts content of GM originality goodness! He may be able to sort out P&P, however, he is coming to the UK in December in a van (must be a massive one!) with parts people have bought.
