Yes Paul,
I think thats what ill go for, and then i am going to spray the red strip a different colour (to be different as i dont have a GTi) so therefore i shouldnt make it look like one lol
I have looked at some of the DIY guides and them seem pretty easy to change and then i can also add my pressed plate and have it on magnets so it can be removed for photoshoots etc as it does look so good without a front plate lol !

If you can get one from them :signLOL:
I've always had problems in the past ordering from awesome. In my experience they've always seemed to be more than happy to take money straight away, and then try to order the part themselves which takes weeks / months to arrive :stupid:
Grille does look good though - but will scratch over time when using magnets no matter how careful you are. I'd advise using double sided suction pads :happy2:

sounds like a plan :happy2:
some guys use double sided suckers instead, as the magnets can scratch the black paint

Certainly the smooth front grill is one i want now !!!
Did you just fill the holes on your and get it sprayed gloss black or did you buy a new part ? If so where from ?

I found the grill mask on ebay then had the holes filled with plastic weld. My mate then smoothed and painted it. :happy2:
