Der Beetle Bus Issue, Manufacturing Fault?

Hi All, I’ve been working on a Beetle Bus and was test fitting the front suspension parts and realized the spindle for one of the wheels isn’t there. It’s been chromed over, so it’s been manufactured this way.

Should I just fix it myself and move on, or is Round 2 worth contacting? I’m in Australia, and I suspect I should just fix it.

Your kit part was damaged. Mine had a correct front axle.
I can send you this one, if you like. However, I did strip the plating off of it. Just contact me and I could mail it to you.

That’s very generous of you Jon, but then you won’t have one. I was going to strip mine when I try to fix it.
