Thanks mate!! Decent price and the painted option is good. If they can match the colour 100%. If not I'll ask if they can be primed.

If you have how well do they fit and are they a good colour match?

Could you post a copy of the link where you got yours from? Id also be very interested to see some photos of them fitted to your car if your willing to post some? I need to replace both front wings and been quoted £500-600 +VAT for a repair job that will involved blending into the bumper. Or £2000 from a VW approved body shop who will use brand new wings from VW and paint them to match. So replacement wings are obviously a much cheaper option if the fit and finish is good enough.

Hi, did you ever get some of these in the end? I would be interested to know how they worked out if you did?

Cheers,
