Hi, I have bought a 3 door 2001 Alfa 147, and have noticed a problem with the drivers door side check strap, I thought that when the door opened fully the check strap mechanism stopped the door opening too far, and have put on a new strap, on doing this I noticed the metal plate that holds the strap to the door has fractured, this leads me to suspect the door has been forced open too far, any ideas as to if this can be welded or is a second hand door the answer.
Thanks
Thanks
