Yeah Aaron its the 9n3 GTI side skirts and rear apron..hmm I think they look allright in real life..I'll get some better pics up after the backbox is fitted, but I wanted something different from everyone elses Votex kits..Plus wanted the twin tail pipe at the back and that wouldnt have fitted with the votex rear apron..But overall I think they look all right, Im coming back down to Glasgow after my exams in 2wks and i'll show them to u then if u want..

Dont get me wrong, I like it! :D

It was just i saw some curvature on the sills and back :lol: , and thought, thats a really special 9n youve got there (thought it was standard!)... 'cos usually people list all their mods in the first post :lol:

Keep up the good work! 8)

Cheers thats a relief!! :) Havnt actually seen any other 9n's with the GTI bodykit..when I ordered it the vagparts guy was totally surprised when he found out that it actually fitted..I think it works because the car is black..otherwise i might have colour coded them..

Cant quite remember how much they were..but they didnt break the bank.. i think the bodykit as a whole was about £150..U dont need to paint it, so u save on that as well..Get it from Vagparts, u will have to pay the £40 delivery but at least they know what there talking about!! :D

£150!!! I was thinking more £250, that sounds great! Did you fit it yourself?

Hmm, maybe I got the price wrong, I cant remember but it wasnt that steep!! It was a lot cheaper than buying the votex kit from ebay..

If you decide to get the rear valence then get a custom exhaust dont get one designed for the 9n as the dont fit!! As I found out..

Will give VAG Parts a call tomorrow. What's the difference between the standard 9n rear valance and the 9n3 GTI one? They look pretty similar apart from the cut out for the exhaust.

Yup thats really the only difference..An exhaust costs about £200 fitted, so factor that in if you want the rear valence.. have you got a chrome grill? or is that just a reflection on the pic?? :?:
