    By any chance, you wouldn't have a set of wheel arch trim to suit large bumper?

    Cheers guys. Appreciate your comments.

    On the lip:

    1. The 16V spoiler is the only bit of the small bumper kit I don't really like (looks a bit like a snowplough or something); the standard lip looks heaps better in my opinion.
    2. The 16V spoiler that I have is in an average condition anyway

    In other news, latest drama is one of the exhaust brackets has snapped off completely, so will need to get this sorted asap - I'm actually looking at getting a complete new system (Jetex is at the top of my list at the moment). Will let you know how I go.

    Dom, how did you fix the broken parcel shelf tab? I've got the same problem and would love to get it sorted.

    Hi Goudgey,

    I got a replacement one from ebay.co.uk:

    vw golf mk2 parcel shelf support | eBay

    Tip for buying from overseas eBay sellers - even if they don't specify international shipping, most of them will post to Australia if you ask them politely

    To replace it is pretty straight forward, you'll need to unbolt the seat belt at the top and the parcel shelf support itself is fixed with, if I remember correctly, 5 retaining nuts underneath. You'll obviously also need to disconnect your speakers and, if you're doing the passenger side support, there is also the interior light switch to be disconnected as well. Hope this helps. Dom.

    I bought Jetex system from the UK just a week ago.
    Jetex seems to be the choice for the UK MK2'ers, hope its the right one for me haha.

    A always, your MK2 is looking great, wish my interior was that nice!
    MK2 - *Insert list of dealer purchased extra's/standard features here*
    80 series - The MK2's BIG, Sooty, polar opposite...
