    There are other os companies that make them also (Caractere).

    http://www.caractere-automobile.com/.../detail_00.htm

    Awesome GTI sell Caractere. I reckon the front spoiler/grill looks cool, so do the side skirts. Getting them over here would be another matter...

    It annoys me that VW kept the same lower front grill as the standard Polo There are pics of GTI style lower grills, apparantly VW have made 'some' and may add them to future models (Rob can you post a pic?). There's a big push in the UK to get them - I reckon VW should make and release them as aftermarket products (for now).

    Cheers Rob
    Yeah the silver Polo has one - should be std on our cars The current lower grill is a mis-match and suits similar grills (like the cars posted underneath the silver GTI). We should petition VW to make and release them, whatya reckon guys?

    That one in the pic, the owner hand made by cutting up the grille from a golf GTI. There is a thread on a Euro forum for his DIY.

    He;s talking about the lower honeycomb grills in the top picture. They were hand made, I've also seen the thread.

    sounds like VW are reluctant to release them without first fitting them to future production runs. ..end of next year at earliest maybe we should have a crack at it ourselves, ie modifying Golf GTi lower grill...

    EDIT just emailed VW Aust about it. will relay their response.
