I guess ur right Joe and its in next week for its 1st service.But I know the answer will mean a brinks mat robbery to pay for it.. :laugh:
I saw an Anni front spoiler on ebay for £145 primed with 5 days to go,so can only imagine dealer price,but I will ask..thnx

What model is your mk4?
If its a 130/150hp TDI some have a transmission cooler which is vented through the nearside of the bumper spoiler, there isn't a spoiler for this model on the market and some dealers leave it off..

Your one is held on by two 25 torx screws and it just pulls off..
