Or waiting to see what the chrome edged one from the 2004 range will be like (that's what I doing...)
Here's a picture
you can even already order it from VW (at least on the continent)

I thought the chrome grille was a myth because its still not listed on UK ETKA, thats what I'm gonna order now though

There actually theres this guy who bought some dooredge chrome strips and put it on his grille, and it also looks nearly as good...
hope the pictures are not too big for you..
so i went to motor world on sunday, but they didnt have any chrome strips... that would be the cheaper solution, but maybe not as durable.. the chrome stiprs should cost about 4 quid, but on the continent the 2004 grille is about 40 quid, maybe even more expensive in the UK...
i also like the abt grille. if you order it from ABT its about 100 quid...

Hope he sees this

- the grille that you've got fitted to your car...how much did you pay for it? They're quotting me R1500 - £115.38 here (Sportech), that includes spraying and shipment to me.

The UK price + VAT is £47.23 I think. I imagine the price quoted on polo9n.com was + any German taxes, so its probably only £7 more.
I ordered mine today, £38 at cost
Seven days and counting...
