Various cutting and trimming techniques should get it sorted.

I got one way back for my old mk2 - found that in a couple of places along the front it fitted in the standard clips...it was at the corners where the shape isnt the same so trimming the corners to give it more flexibility in order to bend it round be careful or it will break!, in the end i ended up putting the standard splitter back on!

good luck tho! :smiley:

have you even offered the vr6 one up to the bumper to see what needs doing? or are you after a guide first?

if it was me i'd take the old one off, compare, cut etc as needed and trial fit. as far as i'm aware you may need to put the odd screw in to keep it in place.

just try it, can't be that hard?!
