the fog ones and the main one with the badge are probably the easiest mods you could do

but for the middle bumper one i needed to access it from behind the bumper, but i did it at the same time i was putting my splitter on so i needed to remove the bumper anyway

i tried to get it off with the bumper still on but i couldn't get the standard one out :?

Okay, do you think having a gti grill but standerd 6n2 grills look a little odd?

i first of all ordered just the gti main grill then i didnt think it looked right so i ordered honeycombe lower and middle grills and it just isnt the same without the fog lights and there not to expensive for the switch fogs and grill either

you dont need to but it makes it 10x easier, i managed to get a few clips off then the splitter started to tear when i was pulling it, leaving the clips in place. so the only way around it was taking the bumper off any prying the clips off, took about 5 mins once the bumper was off
