if this was in black I would take it straight away. Can I ask where you got it from?

f*ck me, to think I spent over $700 importing one and painting it etc. Where were you last year

[99_FGT]

I was here...
Pretty sure the ones I had seen unpainted were around the $100 - $110 mark, in fact the only reason I'm selling it is because I fitted a towbar and didn't want to end up with 2 cutout valances.
Perhaps I'm not asking enough for it...
Maybe pm RGilly, as he sourced a new one when he took the towbar off his car.
(@thezoneR32 - I'll look into shipping via ego or smart send - unless you have an account with pack and send I have found them very expensive)

I couldn't find someone selling a second hand one locally at the time and I'm pretty sure the dealer would ask for $300+. The thing is about $150 unpainted from ECS tuning. I ended up importing another rare aftermarket bumper that's similar to the R32 from Germany for 150 Euro, figured might as well if I'm going to import.. cost me a sh*tload to ship plus some unexpected handling charges when it arrived, then I had to sand / fill / paint the bastard, that's why it cost so much.

Anyway your price sounds reasonable to me, if anyone had a TR Golf they'd snatch that up in no time. I'm just bummed out that I happen to have a TR Golf and am in Brisbane south side but it all comes too late for me... GL with sale lol

Hey there, can I ask how you got a black rear emblem? I haven't been able to find an aftermarket unit and am reluctant to pull apart and paint the original.

Cheers, Tony.

Bump - can't believe this was down on Page 5 already...

[99_FGT]

To the top.
Think I've still got this because the TR cars were GT and GTi only, but it is still a great base at a good price for those looking to code theirs.
Al..
