I got the whole front set of gti grills, for about £80 from http://www.vagparts.com/ , no idea how much it would be just for the main grill.

Oh and welcome to the forum :D you got any pics of your car :wink:

Yu must be talking about the bonnet bra; can't see anything else. Thats there to prevent stone chips, which plagues polo's I found. My car looks like its been riddled by an AK47 :cry:

Yup i only use it for motorway journeys, but the look of it has been growing on me recently so i used it for some pictures as well :P takes 2 seconds to remove and stick back on. For sticking images up, upload them to photobucket and then use the last link they give you with [img]...[/img] on both sides, and just stick it into your post,

hope that helps,
Haris

GTI grille and imo full size plates - at least a full on on the rear anyhow. I love this colour :D

Perhaps some xenon HIDs and some cool sidelights :)

That colour looks mint lad. Personally id get a complete gti front, lower it, german number plates (without any branding) and plain black surrounds and tint the three rear windows.

welcome to the forum bud :D
Liking that, good progress so far but have to agree with the others, gti grille and splitter are needed!
would be good to see that colour polo fully smoothed :wink:
