Just fitted that chrome grill I picked up last week (Bargain ?15 from my local scrappy).
Never thought I would ever ditch a twin headlight setup for single headlamp but I have to say this is growing on me, what do you think?

I can always fit the chrome trims to the twin headlight grill, but I'm tempted to leave as is......

-
i agree the new grill looks so much better rich , id stick with that one
-
Cheers, best ?15 I ever spent I reckon.
For the benefit of you guys and gals that never saw the grill that was fitted when I bought the cabrio, have a look at this:-

It was a kamei kit that I thought looked horrible.
-
looks a lot less 80's. I like it.
-
still stay stick with the new one, square lights have been done so many times now, p.s ignore the sig pic i aint driving it no more
-
Don't worry thoses square ones are never going near a mk1 of mine again. Just thought I'd show you what used to be fitted :o :o
-
some one has as bad taste as i had before lol :'(
-
Rik, your ones don't/didn't look nearly as bad.
-
DIDNT lol gotta stress that i aint got them lights now, got a beaten up four light grill
-
ewww that original one is 'orrible!!
-
Agreed. That Kamei kit looks foul.
I do like your new grill, especially with the chrome bits.
-
Thanks. I reckon that chrome grill is how it should have looked when the car was first purchased so I'm going to stick with it ;)
-
The new grille looks phat. take the gti badge off, kinda spoils the euro look :-\
the grille u had when u got the car looked ugly

...btw when I said that, I was referring to the nice new chrome one. ( you posted the pic of the square jobby while I was typing my msg ). It made it look like I liked the old square one!!! :-X

There's a Cab on ebay that's got the Kamei kit. The car looks fine apart from the lights.
The seller has sensibly started the auction at a low price:
