That looks so much better than the standard grill, excellent idea.

In my opinion the new Polo is just not as handsome as the 6C, it’s a rather dumpy looking car. The improved interior space is significant though. I think the Seat Ibiza is a prettier external design on the same platform.

This ^^

The Ibiza does look so much more appealing! But let down on interior quality unfortunately. And how you need to have top spec for rear electric windows!

I'll swap electric back windows for cruise control, or auto wipers, or climate control.
I don't give a fig about the back seat passengers.

Hi Scotty,

How did you place the Diffuser on the Polo? I've got mine from https://www.kunzmann.de/shop/en/spoiler ... itting.htm but really having issues to attach it. Especially the middle part will not fit in each "sqaure hole", well it does fit but it doesn't give a click, it is not rock solid right now.

I hope you can help me!
Many thanks,

Hi I took the whole rear bumper off the car as it’s easier that way then you can fit everything correctly.

Hi Scott,
Thanks for your quick reply! I was trying to avoid that, as I don’t have any experience in replacing those things. But seems legit that this is the only way fitting the diffuser right.
Is it doable with sensors in the back? Any tips? 😉

Yes taking the rear bumper off is your best option I would say.once you lower the bumper off the car the sensor loom just unplugs so then take it indoors and take off the clips then put the new one on.take both rear lights out too as well as all the screws in the rear arches and underneath.there is also four metal/tin type nuts that have to be taken off from the support bar that goes across near the number plate lights but you have to get them from underneath the car.

Good luck

Scott
