Haha no worries mate. Glad my posts can have some sort of use - only posting VG Auto after someone else on this forum recommended them (forgot who you were, sorry!). Would love to see it in the flesh on the next NSW cruise!

how much did you get the debadged grill for? did you get it here?

**Soundofav6** · 11-07-2007, 10:11 AM

hey pommy golfer
I didn't exactly buy it, friend of mine tolled his VR6 before he got a chance to intall it and even left sydney for business, been lying around in other friend's garage for years. From the box it was from Mattig, it was almost 5 years go he payed almost 200AUS to his door.

But on goingfast.com they are selling for 27.00 US, they seem to be legit 5000+ sales on ebay and 99.6% +ve feedback. here .. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/VW-Go...mZ290136550407

But the price is a little too good to be true.

yeh they seem to be the biggest mk3 supplier on ebay. they are all good if you don't buy lights! (they are LHD)

Its not that great of a deal. This is one of those examples where the seller factors his profit into the shipping cost. US$90 for shipping is ludicrous when you consider you can get a set of coilovers for $130, or my headlights coming from Germany costing US$40 for shipping. Still, even at US$118 shipped I spose its prett good....

Yep, it's the shipping that f*cks you up. Blame the grille being a weird shape for shipping when it's boxed up.
