Title: Glove box silver strip.
Post by: imprezzaworks on December 07, 2020, 10:22:33 pm
Rang TPS a little while ago and they were obscene price wise. Anyone know of a company selling them and the ones on the door too?. Or maybe swapped to something else although I prefer the Silver I think.

Thanks.

Which silver trims? From a GTI? Edition 30? R32?

TPS prices:
GTI's silver trims think around £14 each
Edition 30 trims are brushed versions of the GTI's around £50 each
R32 'Spun' finish never got a TPS price but pretty sure they're £100+

My brushed silver GTI ones, I wrapped in gloss black vinyl so it is reversible.....makes the interior look more refined in my opinion

GTI and ED30 trims are the same, apart from the one above the glovebox

The ED30 version has EDITION 30 printed on it:

Unless they mis heard. The glove box one was over £100 iirc.

They're different, standard GTI's are smooth silver, and the Edition 30 brushed texture. Could be they switched the standard gti trims during the model life.

Will give them a call tomo. I was amazed at the cost. I assume they just click off above the glove box?. Unless she quoted me the lid as well lol.

Mine and a couple of my mates with GTI's are def brushed alloy trims like the Ed30 but with out the red text on the glove box item.

I think yours have been switched out.
