My sister had a whole lot of front end damage; close to a write off. Same situation, had to wait for parts but she had the car back in just under two weeks. Yeah, it's quick, sometimes you're lucky like that.

Hahahahahaha...I have been looking for about 8 months for one, and found it the other night...I now know why they didn't get back to me about the postage...45 Euro!!! And I didn't know that until after I had accepted the product, which was 49.90 Euro. So I won't be leaving good feedback when I can, but I am happy that I got one. All up it was $179AUD, which isnt that bad really, just not happy about the not knowing the postage until after I had commited to the purchase.
This is where I got it...

yeah was expecting it to be painfull, don't forget you have to add the cost of body work to get the notch left behind by the old grill filled unless you are going to leave it.

nice find... now only I should probably wait to get the car back before buying stuff

Didn't you buy a black badge though??

I'll buy the black badge off you if you don't need it anymore! I was going to buy one anyway.

What notch?? I think you are thinking about the Golfs...



Yeah Rhys...I'm still thinking about selling it, but you have first dibs...

Yeah the Polo's don't have a 'notch' in the bonnet, only in the black plastic is just above the grill mesh.

sorry to pic whre but here you can see the notch in the front bar, not in the bonnet.

N75J Wastegate regulator Valve and Festo flow controller went in last night.

Managed to install myself with no real issues.

Car feels better, boost feels smoother and holds better (less fluctuation).

Have not played with the Festo much as I'm not sure what settings will be conducive and what would be too much.

Moneys well spent.

Sorry I should of been clearer but yeah thats the notch I ment, either way it still stands you will have to fill it in and respray that section to get rid of it.
