Mk 7 Golf Wagon load sill protective plate

I've been contemplating getting one of these for the Alltrack Wagon, dealer is asking $270 which seems excessive. I've been scouting around online for an OEM part and have come across a few UK sellers, the freight is the killer. Anyone have any success locally, or recommend anyone?

Was looking at these recently and if you're willing to go non-OEM, most of the car accessory places (and ebay) sell black rubbery adhesive tape stuff which you can apply to the bumper's upper surface for much the same effect. It is a much cheaper option. For example: Rear Bumper Trunk PAD Scuff Rubber Protector FOR VW Benz Universal CAR Black NEW | eBay
