If you can get more discount I'll put my name down. We aren't getting much of a saving for the amount they're making!

there is a webshop http://www.vaglink.com/ (think it;s related to vagteam) where you can find the honeycomb grilles from that Chinese Polo Sporty:

here's a picture from that site"

the price seems to be 129.99 USD with free shipping...
and there is an option to select the value that will be written on the package so you wont pay that much on import tax

I know they differ but, I think they should fit.
The only difference is that, in the case of the "Sporty" ones, the left one (as you look at the car) doesn't have that big cut-out (for air to reach the intercooler) like the ones from the link you've posted ( those are the ones that I and many others bought from vagteam ) - but this shouldn't be an issue for people that have installed a FMIC.

other small difference is that the sporty ones compared doesn't have the honeycomb pattern on the outer edge.

So, for someone who has a FMIC (or will get one in the future) would be a better deal - 60USD cheaper on vaglink site - to get the "sporty" ones.
