I know the fit might be wrong, but there are some on eBay for around £15 each. Look nice :)

Guys there defo not jetta ones! Jetta ones extend more on the chrome part into the bumper! Look closely! :fighting:

They do look shorter - but that could be the angle - here is my reasoning!

Its a Jetta?? Why would you fit a Golf GTi bumper, just to refit all the chrome grill, lower vent and side foglight covers - when the Jetta come with this as std?

Simpy is right, these are Jetta 'style' but not Jetta fitment.

OEM Jetta ones have a much longer top spoiler and the bumper has an indent for it.
Used to have Edition 30 - number 009 and a GT TDI 140.
Now have an S4 B8 Avant (stage 2)

The US Jetta's have the same bumpers as the gti's. It was cheaper for VW to redesign the grills than the whole bumper due to it having side markers for the US market only.

Thats why they have Jetta ones on american ebay to remove the chrome strips - they are on my watch list! I never knew that!
