              • I second that!!! What's the part number and price? I would love to change mine over that's for sure. I saw a new polo 77tsi at the vw dealer the other day with this front and it definitly grabbed my attention! (even more than the stupid Bluetooth module inside the car :p)

                • I got mine in Ebay for a steal really, new they are €90 over here. Any dealership can order them.
                  Luckily I took a pic of the sticker on the back before fitting it to the car: 6R0853651T FOD <- is what it says.

                  Removing the grill can be a bit tricky, but will be done in 5 minutes. Some force is nessessary (tough spelling!) though

                    • I dont, will have to wash the car first.. Rain and mud have been terrible and the only way to tell what colour my car is is by looking at the roof

                      Will wash the car tomorrow and shoot some pics

                        Hey which coilovers did you get and if you don't mind, from where and how much did you pay for them?

                        I'm looking for a set also.

                            Weitec Hicon GT. Only height, no damper. They are a good bit of kit, firmer than stock which was obvious thing to expect but takes the big bumps a lot better.

                            Got them from DPM Performance.co.uk. Good blokes.

                            • Oh awesome thanks heaps I know where my next pay cheque is going.

                              Would emailing them be the best way to contact them regarding questions etc? The only type of coilovers with height as well as damper adjusting seem to be the Bilstein ones but they don't specify if they fit the GTI so i'll need to confirm.

                                Bilstein do make adjustable coilovers for the 6r, you just need to know where to look, as do KW along with others. The trick to finding them is to not look on Australian websites as they all come out of Europe.
