« Last post by Rossimac on Today at 12:09:03 PM Started by Deano45 »Cheers! Grill looks likes it's a good price.
I ordered 2 from eBay last night and they're coming from China. As we're not using the car much in happy to wait. It would've been cheaper from Amazon and quicker buy hey, no big loss.
I've picked up a lot of things for my second GTI, similar to what you have. Have got interior trim and a few things like an RNS 510 and a fiscon Bluetooth system that I picked up at a reasonable price.
Will be following this thread to see what else you do to yours

And the colour match is poor. It's hard to know and you won't know the quality for a few years. They only have a 90 day warranty. Which doesn't give me much confidence!

I have heard decent things about the Lothian wings off eBay, the insurance approved ones... are they not a great fit?

I bought a second GTI and its tailpipes are literally cracking with the rust, so I would want to pick up some of those tailpipes to slot over. Do you have a link? Coudn't find ones on eBay that look exactly like yours.
Also, the front grill, did you go to VW or get one off eBay?
Thanks!
Hi ... Thanks for the kind words ... still a lot do anyway the grill came from eBay a very good copy and some great reviews that’s why I went for it .

As for the the tail pipe trims I did not find any I linked on eBay so brought these from amazon and came delivered super quick
Hope this helps
Thanks...

I will look into the Gumtree Golf though!

How are are we that Jetta wings are the same for the golf? They are in Sheffield which isn't far for me at all. I actually rung these guys yesterday about a golf wing they had, but it was rusty.
