Looks good...not sure if it will fit a 9n though. Can't tell from the pics really.

I dont think it will. The top clips look significantly different compared to the ones on the 9N. Ive had a MK7 for a week as a courtesy and the grille shape appeared to also look different.

I wonder who's going to be first to put a new polo front end on their 9n..

I was considering this

But having second thoughts now, as it will lose its originality as a 9N

, and the 9N front end has grown on me...lots of potential

You're looking at a minimum of new lights, bumper and a pair of front wings for a 9N3 conversion though aren't you? Seems an awful lot of work for not much gain....

i was going to do this but it wont fit the 9n...

and alternative you could try to give it that gti "effect" would be if you paint your original grill with a red stripe....
let me know how it goes

i did it on my 9n a long time ago now
but with most things i got bored and removed it ( i should have really done it to my grill with the badge on for a more 'gti' look)
