Plastic Repair: Notes
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2025 Volkswagen Jetta. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE:
Follow the general accident prevention tips. Do not repair safety-related components whose function can no longer be guaranteed after servicing, for example, those that absorb impact.
Plastic repairs with the plastic repair kit refer to servicing painted plastic body components such as the bumper and mirror housing. Before repairing, check carefully to see if the service can be performed and if it makes sense economically (repair/new part).
Plastic components with a structured surface can be serviced. However, the quality standard of the surface will not be at the same level as that of a new part.
