Complete your rally restoration with this Metro 6R4 Tailgate, a precision-moulded GRP rear hatch panel available in single- or twin-skin construction. Designed to replicate the factory bodywork used on works-built 6R4s, it combines lightweight performance with exceptional strength and authenticity.

The single-skin version is ideal for lightweight builds or display cars, offering a simple yet accurate reproduction that’s easy to fit and finish. The twin-skin version includes Kevlar reinforcement, increasing rigidity and impact resistance while retaining the same smooth outer finish. As a result, it provides the perfect solution for competition or heavy-duty rally use.

In addition, both versions are hand-laid from high-quality GRP (fibreglass) to ensure a consistent surface ready for primer and paint. Each tailgate aligns perfectly with OEM hinge and latch points for easy installation and a professional result.

Moreover, the GRP construction eliminates corrosion and significantly reduces weight compared to steel panels, improving rear balance and handling. For a complete rear assembly, pair this component with the Metro 6R4 Rear Arch Engine Bay Liners and Roof Section  to achieve consistent quality across your build.

🔧 Installation Tips

Trial-fit the tailgate before painting. Use lightweight hinges or bonding for secure mounting and apply seam sealer for weather protection. Because GRP and Kevlar are light yet rigid, even fastening pressure ensures a perfect fit.

Finally, explore the Metro 6R4’s Group B heritage on the FIA Historic Rally Championship website  for authentic technical and historical reference.
