Alternatively, have you tired VAG Parts or VW for the 16V one?
do mk5 splitters fit mk4's? didnt think they did.
Yes they do, they need a bit of trimming though I think. Loads of MK4s on Club Polo have GTi splitters.

3 examples here:

oh rite maybe it is the gti one im after not sure, whats the difference?

yeah that is a GTI splitter not a standard splitter.

the standard splitter is very small

Standard Splitter

GTi Splitter
(my sig)

can you see the difference? The GTi is a bigger lip that is about 3-4inches deep.

hope this helps
