Still not 100% convinced which front end looks better, thoughts?


I like them both so its a tough decision but if it was me I would probably paint the gti grill matt black and lose the red stripe

It's a personal taste matter. With GT Sport grills you can fit R-Line fog grills. Either bumper would look better with the front spoiler from the Ed. 30/R-Line. :wink:

I want the ed30 spoiler might have it textured tho as not sure I want colour coded skirts and rear valance,

Thanks for the input so far, main plan with the car was to build a gti spec diesel hence the gti grill and red brakes,
Should probably stick to the plan rather than second guess my self

Ed. 30 replicas sold in ebay are smooth black ABS plastic or smooth black reinforced fibreglass (not textured like the side skirts). Just the GTI spoiler (that has the lower lip compared to yours) has the same textured surface.

Yeah, missed the lip in the picture. Sorry. :ashamed:
That's very good for you. I'm curious to see the final result of that texturization. :smiley:

Probably around the £50 mark for all of them

Have you got some photos of it all that you can send me?

Just so I can see everything you've got and what I'd need to get?!

Would have to did it out of loft, but got the main centre grill, lower centre grill and the 2 side grills, you would need bumper ang lower spoiler fog lights and badges

Chosen to go back to the gt sport grills on mine, makes it less of a gti replica





And gave it a nice clean
