I will phone a friend and get back to you with where he got them from for me. They were cheap as I have done the sides twice now. The first time the bodyshop i used baked them and they warped, so when I changed my standard front GTI spoiler for the aniversary one I had them done again and asked them not to put them in the oven or a least do it at a lesser temp. They came out fine

I reckon, if you have the cash, buy R32 pre primed shirts (let me know of the cost from your dealer/souce, as I picked some up for £25 each) and then a front 30th aniversary spoiler (£300, but worth it) as that is pre primed. Then you only have to worry about the rear being sanded down, that said the Oettinger rear valance is nice, if you have the cash

Skirts are £170 a side now. I rang 3 dealers and even vagparts

....That can't be!! A whole R32 rear spoiler only costs £138 (incl vat)!! - I've just bought one recently. I paid about £50 for both my primed R32 sides.

It had been an error on the vw system for a long while.  Now corrected.  To be honest they are priced about right now.  For example, ed30 front splitter £300 + vat, rear valance £395 + vat so £170 for primed skirts seems about right.  MK4 r32 skirts were over £200 a side

....Jeeeze!! I paid about £50 for my pair of R32 sides! £170 each side makes my new carbonfibre rear VW badge (including refundable lock!) for £176 seem very cheap!! :shocked:. It'll probably cost me £100 including fitting.

....I've just made contact with the guy who made my front VW badge in the U S of A and something is being set up for the UK - I'll let you guys know in due course.

I've just recieved the rear VW boot lock badge (the very last one available for now). I had to pay fecking £47.60 fecking UK duty 'n handling!! : -
