Ridiculous :stupid:
Don't get the logic.. after the first one broke.. why continue? :sad1:
They cost me about £75 from the dealers if you're thinking of replacing.

I'm puzzled as to why you'd even want to steal the skirt hah, there was no other damage and even my metal vw dust cap things were still there :confused:

Is that £75 for the pair or each? I'm assuming there only purpose is styling and not to protect anything?

Sure it was not just a random act of vandalism?

As they are about £32+ VAT either side.

Yeah they're just for styling, but make a big difference if you ask me.

EDIT: I guess they protect the paint from stonechips, which can cause rust. So they do serve a purpose somewhat.

People amaze me, what sort of scum bag would try and steal the skirts, anyone with a brain cell can see they are not going to come off properly, I had a fool steal my front VW badge year before last, to get the badge they had to break the whole front end honeycombed part up, woke up to a giant hole in the front of my car all for the sake of about a £20 badge. These people need  :fighting: :fighting: :fighting:

Sorry to see this mate; it's stuff like this that you never end up using the insurance for, so it comes straight out the back burner - f*cktards.

to be fair, it's like 4 bolts to remove them lol . Just don't see why they'd break them randomly - hence why I think it's vandalism :(

^^^Can't be??...If they wanted to vandalise it they could've keyed it on every single panel. Would've been quicker and involved less bending.

My guess is that the lad(s) wanted the skirts for their own entry level Mk5. The incredibly low intellect involved has ultimately foiled them...it must be quite frustrating quite often to be so retarded.

Two gents where I grew up broke into the chinese takeaway. Instead of a smash and grab, they decided to get the wok out and lash up a special fried rice (they were obviously peckish). They were arrested before they'd finished cooking. It was in the local paper.

Another bloke was done for sitting in his van masturbating into a lucozade bottle - the old wide-neck dimpled glass bottles. A schoolgirl reported him - he was actually named in the local paper.
