Yes  :innocent: but can't find one in the uk with the GTi lettering unless you buy from the states.

So are these just for saving your bonnet from stone chips then? I do think they look good though.

America, but I believe they don't make them any more so you can only get 2nd hand ones and they are as rare as rocking horse poo

Sadly this is the case  :fighting:

Even sadder is the fact i didnt buy a load of them when i bought mine as they were only $38 for the full front bra from ECS Tuning!  :sad1:

Ihave a full front one, never got around to trying it yet, though have just had my bonnet resprayed so want to keep it looking tidy and scratch/chip free.
Got it for £45 off ebay a few months back second hand.
