Hi all,
I’m sorry if this has been brought up before iv had a look around but can’t really find an answer.
I recently had my hatchback doors sand blasted and they came back basically unusable... iv been trying to hunt down a good pair with very little luck.
My question is has anyone used Alfa’s glass doors and if you have can you tell that they are glass and not steel?
Any help or suggestion would be appreciated.
Thanks.

What month/year? You might find they are illegal if it has an intrusion bar ADR on the compliance plate.

You may have to buy a whole car and wreck it out. Really good doors can go for $2500 each or even more. You might find they are free if you can cop the short term pain of the capital outlay to buy a car. UC’s are still affordable.

Hang in there as they do come up every now and then but you will pay 2k each for them. But hey, you can pay 4k for a set of wheels and no one blinks.

How bad are your old doors? Some good rust repairs for most of inner frame avail now on Ebay.

Haha yes that is very true!
My drivers side is repairable but the passenger has even started rusting where the window winds into.. upper frame I’d guess you call it.
