Hi guys wondered if we have an option to change the grill on the gti as I don't like it and want something different :grin:
Thanks

Only other I think you'll find is that slats like on mine which came on the GT models etc.
-
There's a carbon version from OSIR USA, not cheap though as you can imagine

You know how I like my bargains :doh: for one I wouldn't get it for half that price as some twat will just reverse into you and that's it a grand blown on a rip off bit of carbon :signLOL: also he's prices are pathetic greedy twat.

It's pretty much what you see on the GT Sport (aka Wolfsburg Grille in the US), I had this on my last car and it's pretty subtle compared to the Honeycomb grille.

For the fog lights you can choose either the GT Sport or the "R-Line" version which extends the slats for an aggressive look.

The other option that fits on the GTI bumper is the Jetta one, like the GT Sport but comes in blingy Chrome which isn't really my thing!

i was thinking of the one but I can't be spending 300 + for that :signLOL:
Really appreciate the help @PatchySan (http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=6709) @Matto (http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=4512) not @fab5freddy (http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=3064) :booty:
Will definitely go for the slatted centre but now the fog ones and lower grill are being a challenge to find cheap :doh:

Dunno if it's worth trying your local dealer/TPS for those as some people managed to snag it for like £40-50 ish back in the day. Part numbers are: 1K08539899B9 & 1K08539909B9.

R32 grill won't fit the gti bumper and the bumper is £250 delivered from Yorkshire :signLOL: cheap enough.
Ps I'm ordering that black Gti Jetta grill as it's been in my watch list and thanks again for your help. Now in just need the lower fog grills and centre one. :thinking:
-
I meant the r32 grill for 189 pounds - search for "VW Golf R32 Grill All Gloss Black Edition MK5 New Fits 2004-2008 GTI TDI TSI gti"
includes the lower grille?
check it out but it does have a little chrome...
one for 179 too...
honey still tastes sweet...
-
Do you mean this one buddy? I'm certain it doesn't fit and the lower outer grill are different also want to keep my fogs. @croak2012 (http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=17131)

You might as well build a sleeper. 17s, hidden exhaust, SDI badge. And then all that k04 business. Go on.

Are you being sarcastic lol :P
I just dislike the gti grills never liked honey combe style :sick: and now have an excuse to replace them :wink:

A little bit sarcastic
Put it this way, if I saw what I thought was a 140/170 GT Sport behind me I wouldn't expect it to scream past like a k04 GTI would!

just ordered this too! I was thinking badgeless version but I think this slatted gt grille will look really nice with black badge!
hopefully we will get from china before X-mas! hmmm... maybe...
where are you getting the lower center grille?
I might try to keep my open fog lights to show off my front mounted intercooler - where are you getting your fog lights?

ah that's awesome buddy :jumping: let's hope they do come before xmas as I'm really liking this new look I going for :grin:
Not sure as I've not ordered the centre one yet but the fog light grills have been purchased off Andy aka Maxitrol for a very good price as they cost a lot of money brand new :surprised:

I don't want to put a spanner in your win win situation but I pissed all over one on the M1 with stock power TBE exhaust hpfp internals and a ramair filter again no map so I'm not surprised he couldn't pass you :signLOL:

are they just GT fog grilles you got off maxitrol - I hope i can get some lol - know anyone else who was selling a set?
-
Yes they are gt grills and like gold dust used and luckily Andy had a pair stashed away :smiley:
I don't I'm afraid but keep on searching breakers yards and a place called Nirro in Essex as that's where I got a few parts from but these guys are rude and not cheap lol

Bit of an update on this grill @croak2012 (http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=17131) these idiots from china have done a sly one and saying the parcels been lost already and they don't have any in stock to replace it so do I want my money back :confused: funny thing is that they are showing 10 available and probably don't want to send this to me as I won a bid for les than the going rate of £60 that they're selling them for on another auction on eBay lol what a stupid twat :slap: I've a right mind to go there and :fighting2: them in the face for trying those ones on me.
-
OK. ..I will let you know if they Contact me.... does not sound promising
-
No it doesn't but if you paid full price then I'd reckon you'll see your one soon.
She contacted me so I'm presuming I won't receive mine and will have to opt for a refund.
-
mine has been marked as posted - are you going to order another one ?
-
They've messaged me and said they'll send one as soon as they get more stock so I can't really say or do anything and to add furthe insult they've refunded me £2 without me even mentioning any such thing :mad:
