Cully - I've heard genuine grills don't fit properly on a GTI?

... The genuine parts... from VW... the company that designed and built the car.....  :laugh:

Not sure where you heard that but its gonna be a load of bollocks. I would be very suprised if an after market company can make something fit better than the orginal manufacturer.  :smiley:

I think he means the grills wont fit the JOM bumper.

I've jut got myself a FK r32 front bumper and got myself the gen r32 grills which wont fit the bumper. going to have to use some black silicone or something.

Yes genuine parts do have there problems like the r32 bumpers not fitting properly even the rline rear can be a rubbish fit.
An aftermarket company that makes things better than the original.....erm......... Milltek, superpro, forge etc theres loads

i found that the gen grills seem to fit the fibre glass bumpers better than they fit the abs plastic reps as i had both and believe it or not the fit is better with the abs reps but the grills are a b!tch to get right as opposed to just slotting them in on the fibreglass ones


 i drive a golf thats why im skint!!!!


losing interest in the golf and now not so skint !!!!!
