Ones off ebay are grand! I got a debadged one, clips were a bit brittle but its good for the price, no holes either.  :happy2:

The rear private plate arrived today so didn't waste anytime getting it on.



Have ordered an eBay replacement smooth grill for £30 and will probably just sticky pad the new short plate to it. I've tried magnets before but found they marked the grill, may go with suction cups in the future!

For now I'm running it like this until the new grill arrives

Have had the plates on for a little while now. Ended up buying an eBay smooth grill for £30ish. Build quality and fit is good but it had a feel blemishes.













Either way, it's better than the old one with holes in it!








I need to do some tweaking to get the gti badge to sit square but otherwise I'm happy with it. Glad I went for a short plate. I mounted it lower than standard. Wanting to show off some of the smooth grill without covering up too much of the lower open grill.





Thanks for looking. More mods on the way!

Car is looking awesome !  :happy2:
I too purchased the smooth grille from ebay and had almost identical blemishes to the ones you have, informed them and they refunded me and let me keep the grill. Can't say fairer than that   :smiley:

Cheers mate,

That's good to know, perhaps I'll give them an email!
