For some time now i have been looking at getting some OEM Gti (equivalent) side skirts for my Jetta. My preference has always been the original textured look. I have spoken to my local stealer about them but they were no help what so ever. In fact when ever i go in and question them about fitting golf stuff to my car they must think "oh no not him again!"
I had placed a wanted post to see if i can adapt an old or damaged golf 5 door version, only had 1 reply to this, thanks Tortaruga.
I have been aware of ECS tuning in USA and they sell the Jetta GLi OEM skirts but I have been put off by the price of the postage and duty, I know UK Golf skirts are £40 from the stealers but the total quoted cost of £285 is somewhat too much (out of principle)
Over the weekend i registered with VWVortex (some lovely carsover there) to see if anyone knew if 1, I could get a good deal from their stealers or 2, someone could give me the part numbers.
Someone came up with the part numbers along with a stealer that would supply them

I will update when they arrive.
Thanks for looking in
