Hi nick

Welcome to UK Polos

You'll need GTI Specific suspension at the dampers are uprated and the springs are 10mm lower

Either a used set from someone on here/a breaker or a new set from GSF or Euro Car Parts are your best options

I've got a set of genuine springs somewhere in the garage if you're interested?
