Internal door handle shroud

Post by jiminwatford »

Hi,

The two front internal door handle shrouds on my R8 do not sit flush in the door panel.

The two on the rear do. and, when the front ones are put on the back they fit fine, but the rears don't fit the front.

i cannot see any reason for this. could anybody shed any light?

thanks

James :)

Do you have a picture of it at all? May be able to help out a bit from that.

Have you tried tucking it in behind the material panel and tightening the screw again?

Looks like the door card could be bent/warped?
