Title: Side Skirts and door strip !!!
Post by: nikkim53 on 24 February 2009, 13:07

Hi - my golf gti is needing a new passenger side skirt as the one i have now is cracked and starting to rust and also the driver door strip is coming away from the door !!

Side Skirt - any idea if second hand or new from VW is better and approximate prices ??

Door Strip - am i right in saying these are just held in by small clips - again second hand or VW (prices) ??

Many thanks, only small things i know bt there taking the shine off an otherwise immaculate car !!  :wink:

You could try a thread in the wanted section as a few people will have taken those off and changed them for other types!

Cheers again - just noticed that section (still feeling my way round) and think i'll do that just now !!

Alloys go well with the colour mate !!

I wouldn't use a used side skirt piece as they all rust and bow!! vw charge around £23 per side for the insert (rubber strip)
and door moulding clips are under £1 each from vw too (just replace the ones it needs)

So VW is the way to go !!

It only needs one clip - cheap job, thanks !!
