i've got a couple of sets of small bumper Mk2 ones here, genuine VAG. tried some gsf ones on my old mk3 and really wish i hadn't. ended up paying approx £25 each for gen ones and was well pleased.

This might sound really stooopid, but do Volkswagen dealerships still sell genuine mk2 arches?

Also, do you know of any other place which sells genuine VAG parts?

VW still sell most trim bits for the MK2 yeah, but try http://www.gpcvwaudi.com first :)

Don't mess about with pattern parts, just get genuine vag stuuf.    I bought an arch kit & plastic sills for mu valver, only cost 160 notes from a dealer.

everything GPC sell is genuine unless stated otherwise ;)
Also, G60 arches are ALWAYS genuine, no-one makes pattern coppies :)
