Polo GTI fog grills ( Honeycomb )

[G-VW-PGTI]

I tried to order this stuff last night but for some reason when i click on proceed to checkout the next screen comes back with blank information ... it just has the vaglink banner and the links but nothing regarding the order at all ... anyone else have this problem ??? or could it just be a firefox issue

Don't know mate, could be a browser issue.

I got the cheap one, used a Dremel equivalent to open up the drivers side for ventilation to the SMIC.

Grafted the old air scoop onto the new one.

Money well spent.

Are you talking about the centre one ? If so, I cut mine with snips to create more flex .... otherwise you need to pull the whole bumper off

No...
Just the fog light ones...

Drivers side has a screw to the center side of the fog light. Screw was not in contact with the grill on mine, so both came out with light pulling.

Should not have to pull with much force, check for screws (would be visible from the front) before having another go.

Approximately what length of time from when you order to when the stuff arrives?

[Gti Dave]

Funnily enough I expected it to take about 2 or more weeks at the least but it came at a surprising 1 week.

I got an email saying mine had been shipped on the 20th. It hasn't shown up yet, Maybe Monday.

Finally got mine installed. Surprisingly, it didn't take me any longer than 3 mins to install. Pulled the side grills out, one with a screw, and the centre one needed a bit of convincing but managed to get it out with not too much damage to the original centre grill. Must say though, these honeycomb ones are built stronger than the factory ones particularly the centre grill. Now it looks more like the mini version of the golf gti. LOL

Now it looks more like the mini version of the golf gti. LOL

Yeah, many a person has called my car a Golf by mistake and now its even more similar.

I had to butcher the cr*p out of the middle section to get it out... Sides were easy after some ventilation customizing.

Yeah, the funny things is the Golf seems to be engraved into people's heads cause 9/10 times whenever I'm getting something to suit the polo, I have to keep reminding them its a polo not a golf (in case they order in the wrong thing and ends up wasting everyone's time etc).
