Suggestion about OEM parts for Polo

Post by touyahk »

Hi all,

I have a 2001 6N2 GTI and looking for some body parts. However, geninue parts are far too expensive and would anyone know any OEM brands which supply VW parts?

My car is not in UK and second hand spare parts are very difficult to find here :cry:

Your comment is much appreciated and thanks! :D

Have you looked at genuin second hand body panels?

Any 6n2 Polo will do, it doesn't need to be a GTI unless its a front bumper, headlights or the boot spoiler.

Really? What's different, where it meets the sill or something?

16vs sills are deeper and the wing stops before the sill

On the 8v they are shorter and the wing goes through the sill.
