Title: Replacement GTi Grille
Post by: Synchronize on 06 December 2011, 17:24

Hi All,
Just wondering if anyone has any recommendations for a replacement GTi Grille? I hit a deer  :sick: a while back (managed to slam the anchors on), so only cracked the gloss part - since it happened I've kept the grille on with carbon wrap to cover the crack!

I had one from the Bay a little while back, but sent it back as the quality was pure cack - it looked as though it was moulded from 3 separate parts (big lines down the honeycomb section), and the red strip wasn't anything near the standard colour! Worst thing was the seller was listing it as OEM quality...

Thanks.

Hi mate, thanks for the info. I found a VW dealer selling discounted parts so have ordered one from there. Thanks anyway.
