Honeycomb lower grilles

Post by shadowfnx »

Does anyone have photos of the honeycomb lower grilles fitted on a 9n3 GTI? The cheapest price I could find on eBay is £80(!) delivered, or £15 for the centre piece alone.

Thanks for the tip, I might go the DIY route to save a bit of cash if I can't find them anywhere cheaper. Do you have any photos of the grilles on your car?

I got mine off eBay for around £50 I think.
Done the same and got rid of the honeycombs on the drivers side cos not a lot of air will pass with just the 5 that are already cut out.
