2012 focus tailgate

Hi, some !Removed! has keyed the Mrs car bonnet and tailgate, I just wondered if anyone knew if the tailgate comes as a complete unit or you can buy spare parts as where it's been done its on a panel, to save expensive respray on the tailgate at least and maybe be able to go to the local scrapyard if so

you can get that plastic part separatly, and probably in the correct colour. is just a few nuts that hold it in place.

Should be 5 or 6 nuts that hold the tailgate handle on but if you go to ford it'll cost around £110+ for it, personally I'd remove it, rub it down and respray it myself.

I'm completely useless so it may be a trip to ford unfortunately unless i can go to scrappy and find a second hand one with a friend who's a mechanic

it is easy enough to remove that tailgate piece, if you do decide to do it yourself, then we are here to help.

Brilliant, thanks for that, I'll get on the hunt for one, Mrs works in local shop and always throwing shoplifters out so only thing I can think of is that someone's taken exception, twice in three days they have done it and snapped off rear windscreen wiper
