    If you're lucky. Same issue on the MK4 and they refused saying it wasn't covered under the definition of their bodywork warranty. They did cover rust on my Passat though.
    Remember the saying: if it looks too good to be true it almost certainly is.

    You don't need to be very lucky , just as long as your wings have the original paintwork , they only check the paint depth and that it is not accident damage and then its approved if original. My sons car is 9 years old just had new wing and sprayed foc. There are hundreds of people who have had success all over the VW forums.
