I done my one for my tfsi leon and its easier than you think. I kept all 4 securing points.
I seperated the two sections where the air filter goes and cut that to fit first and then trimmed the top section and put them together and bingo.
I used a hacksaw and filed the rough edges off the cover and it looks good.
