Hah what a crock of sh*te! So according to vw the us jetta is shorter than the uk version! Can't make it up..
Hope you get to the bottom of it mate and it gets sorted, I'm guessing you can't take them back off due to having drill holes in sill to secure the skirt bracket?

OK so i took the car to VW this morning and the parts guy (lets call him Mike) came out and tried to fit the skirt! Surprise surprise it still didn't fit.
He then went to the workshop to get another guy (chief mechanic) and they had a go at fitting the skirt together. After about 5-10 attempts they both decided that there was NO way the skirt was going to fit!!
I pointed out that the skirt had a slight twist to it but the N/S didn't prior to fitting, "that could be the issue"
Mike said he will order another one, which will possibly arrive sometime mid next week. 

Mike did also say that VW UK would NOT be interested if the skirt doesn't fit as I am "retro" fitting them to my car.

Result is that i have to wait till next week to see if VW can get a straight O/S skirt.

Thanks for looking in

In my quest to get 18" wheels (prefer Pescara's but will wait for the right set) I managed to win these off the bay.
7.5x18 ZCW Angel ET38 with 215/35 Cooper Zeon tyres on.



Had to drop my eldest off at her mums for half term but managed to get back just in time to fit them to the car before it got too dark.



Will get some better pictures tomorrow.

Thanks for looking in

Stanipkiss:
Daylight picture, the gap between the arches makes it look like it needs lowering (even more) and been out in it and the ride feels very rough on 35 profile.

JoeDarKa:
Looks good but does need lowering!
