Firstly, thank you for letting me join the Type R Owners Site. I have been an owner of a Type R 2002 Model for 19 years.
I was involved in an accident which resulted in damage to the passenger door & quarter panel.
A replacement door & quarter panel have been sourced but when the body shop stripped my car down they discovered damage to the B post, we cannot locate this part, there was one showing in Greece on Honda's redundant stock but on enquiring it was no longer available.
I have spoken to the Insurance & they are stating that I can't obtain this part from a scrap yard.
Has anyone any ideas please as I am distraught that my car may have to be "scrapped"
I am not what people conceive as a Type R driver being 71 years old lady & my regular passenger is my Chocolate Labrador dog.
It was my dream to drive the coastline of Great Britain in my Type R with my dog next year & will be devastated if the only option is to scrap my car.
Thank you for reading this & hopefully someone can give me a solution or advice
