Snapped fuel flap

[Copaleon]

Hi

I own a 2012 Seat Leon Copa SE 1.6 Tdi in Furia grey. In all the rushing around at Christmas I left the fuel flap open and walked past it at and snapped it in half

I am looking at all options to find a replacement but it needs to be in great condition as the rest of the car is. Anyone had any experience with dealer costs to supply, spray and fit a replacement fuel flap ?

Also if its an easy job I may tackled it myself so all advise welcome.

Thanks

One screw, and pull the lot out, easy.... Order one from dealer first, get it sprayed with your colour code and fit it yourself.

Thanks for the advice any fitting giude pictures appreciated. called my local dealer and the replacement part and spraying costs £106.80, so a costly mistake but could have been worse I guess.

If you PM me an email address i will send you pdf's of the removal and installation instructions but as already stated it is 1 screw.
