    It's on Ebay for €90:
    Ebay link

    seems to be a variant of this one:


    Wouldn't try them on a lowered car though, clearing speedbumps is already extremely tricky over here.. even stock

    So the Wheel manufacturer got back to me, the R Talladegas for my car are 11kgs each wheel.

    Is that a good weight compared to the Boavistas? (wonders if Guru Gavs or anyone would know)

    Can't see any other photos but it looks to me like a front splitter/spoiler that glues/bolts on to the bottom of the Polo

    car front spoiler for VW polo products, buy car front spoiler for VW polo products from alibaba.com

    minimum 30 units...god damn...and Carbon Fibre finish?!?!
    looks hot but it would last about 5 minutes...mine already scrapes if i'm not careful

    Our Oz racing 17" wheels are under 8kg's each.

    Question is how much do the Boa's weigh and from history Oz racing wheels are much lighter than the factory wheels from VW.

    Surely some one could weigh one for you before purchase!

    Speaking to Volkswagen since they have my car, they can pull one off and weigh it for me

    Edit:

    Spoken to Jason at Volkswagen Botany he said 11kg is fine so long as the alloy is made from first class grade alluminium rather than scrapped (confirmed with factory/dealer with certification of steel grade).

    Asked about how the wheel would fit (17 x 7.5 ET 35 on a 215/40/R17 = Fit with a little less wheel protection will sit flush).

    Asked about 18x8 for a Polo he immediately said "Would you like to be able to throw your car into a corner and come out with no damage?" I said yes he goes "Then get the 17 x 7.5 as the 18x8 may not hit the suspension arm however it will rub and possibly damage the side wall/tyre tread which warranty will not cover"

    So looks like i'm ordering them tonight as they have passed crush testing, they have been certified.

    If anyone wants a set of these rare! R Talladegas 17 x 7.5 5x100 please message me and i will forward you the dealers details they come in Silver only however i have been quoted to spray $125 per wheel by Tempe for Matt Black finish with clear coat that includes fitting and balance with VW centre wheel badges! (as the wheels do not come with them).

    I really, REALLY want one of those hail but after speaking with the re-seller in Poland, they haven't made one for the GTI

    Would just match the skirt add-ons of the GTI to a tee I reckon and finish iit all off, with the black on the sills the fake diffuser being black plastic too....

    The guy in Poland reckons it would cost me $700 to land it in Australia...was it Maxton Design?

    If so find out more info we may be able to tee up while i'm in Melbourne for the Grand Prix and maybe organise a group buy?
