The side skirt on my gti gone!
« on: June 23, 2009, 08:28:52 am »
somehow I have managed to lose the side skirt on my gti... no idea when or where but there is only a small bit left all i can think is that i have caught it when parking too near to some bushes or something  :surprised: does anyone know how much it will cost me to replace and whether its something i can have done NOT via the dealers.. anyone one here yorkshire based that can sort it?

cheers me dears

R32 one were £76 for the pair - which come primered ready to paint - if you want the standard GTI black plastic versions I would think they will be a similar price.

Neg that was a while back, and they had been priced wrong. I think they are double that price.  :confused:

Take a look through our for sale section, there was some for sale a while back.  :smiley:

Are all R32 ones primered already? I really want to spray mine, and having that done already saves me a bit of work?
If I get some R32 ones then mine will be available.

Yep they come smoothed and primed, it works out about the same price buying either after you factor in sanding and priming the GTI skirts.

I was really just pointing these out for the OP, in case he wanted a cheap set to replace his missing one.
Will probably just end up sanding mine myself and getting my brother in law to paint them for me.

Can you buy them separately or do they have to come in pairs from vw?

You can buy them individually, bodyshops across the world would be pretty annoyed if that was VWs policy!
