GROUPBUY - GTI honeycomb grill

[Quest]

For info, there's actually a GroupBuy on UK-POLOS.net :

http://www.tigerstyle.co.uk/poloforum/viewtopic.php?t=39945&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0

The Full set is about £60 equal $142 AUD !
Maybe we can make a deal with them ?
I know there are few guys here who are already member of this forum.
Someone might be able to connect us with this groupbuy...?

Otherwise, we've got this ebay link :

I would definitely be interested in a group buy from the UK at that price.

with postage will probably end up over $200 regardless I'll be in

I had a scan of the UK thread, and it said the part is from Singapore and shipped to China to sell...
Whats the point in getting in with the UK guys if we have to get it delivered there, then back here, and suffer thru the pount to AUD conversion????

Did I read it wrong?

Hey guys,

It was just for your information but if we want to go ahead together on this groupbuy, someone need to ask the guy in charge on the UK-POLOS.net (seems to be flyfs6) if it's possible to do so...!

I have asked Shaneth as he's a UK-POLOS' member to be our intermediate with it and retreive a mail contact as we could do the rest....
But Shaneth is very busy actually and i'm not sure he would or could do it for us in time.

I'll keep you up to date but it seems that the groupbuy is already engaged...
I hope it's not too late !

Cheers,
Quest

No, i think you're right T Go !
We have to make a deal with them coz it's better to deliver in the Pacific Ocean (Australia for all of you and NC for me) to save money !

hmmm has anyone here thought why isnt there's a hole for the intercooler? I know Adam's driver' side has holes in them. but the one on ebay doesnt.

[Whubbsie]

it's an excuse to buy a FMIC

[insanekiwi]

Yeah I saw the ebay link, the reason why I am getting the front grill is that large hole for the intercooler.

I would be really keen to continue with groupbuy (Adam's grill) if possible. I am still in!

Thanks.

on the first group buy Adam organised, the pics of the grill didn't have holes for the IC and people were discussing how they will cut the sections out. when they arrived, there were holes there!

you may be pleasantly surprised.

Ditto. I am definitely interested still.

Anyone else willing to try and organise a group buy? Not sure exactly what's involved, or who to contact...

Is anyone interested? If we can get a few people I will see if we can save on postage.

Does anyone know how to remove the middle piece of the grill without removing the front bar?

I've managed to get hold of the honeycomb grill set - I've installed the two side pieces but I can't remove the middle piece.
