Ridiculous :stupid:
Don't get the logic.. after the first one broke.. why continue? :sad1:
They cost me about £75 from the dealers if you're thinking of replacing.

I'm puzzled as to why you'd even want to steal the skirt hah, there was no other damage and even my metal vw dust cap things were still there :confused:

Is that £75 for the pair or each? I'm assuming there only purpose is styling and not to protect anything?

Sure it was not just a random act of vandalism?

As they are about £32+ VAT either side.

Yeah they're just for styling, but make a big difference if you ask me.

EDIT: I guess they protect the paint from stonechips, which can cause rust. So they do serve a purpose somewhat.

People amaze me, what sort of scum bag would try and steal the skirts, anyone with a brain cell can see they are not going to come off properly, I had a fool steal my front VW badge year before last, to get the badge they had to break the whole front end honeycombed part up, woke up to a giant hole in the front of my car all for the sake of about a £20 badge.

Sorry to see this mate; it's stuff like this that you never end up using the insurance for, so it comes straight out the back burner - f*cktards.

to be fair, it's like 4 bolts to remove them lol . Just don't see why they'd break them randomly - hence why I think it's vandalism :(
