9N3 GTi Lower Grille inserts

Post by GTi_dan »

Hi Guys, Just had a thought...
Does anyone know if you can hold of the 3 lower grille inserts (2which house spotlights and 1centre) for 06> GTi 9N3 in Honeycomb style to match to upper GTi grill?
The golf has the lower in honeycomb, Shame the polo doesn't.

Do such parts even exist? I think would be quite a cool mod if such parts are made.

Cheers

i have also looked in to this but im affrad not no

which is a shame as my golf gti did have them and the 6n2 polo gti also had them

i agree it would look much better, maybe someone will make them one day

can't even find a full honeycomb grill without VW logo in it let even stand the lower 2.... :roll:
for the "normal" polo you find everything, why not for a GTI...?

...Shame, Such a part would be amazing.

Those guys who manufacture the badgeless grilles for 6n's..etc..etc need to get onto these parts... I think they would make a killing, Providing they had factory look+feel to them.
Would finish the front end off a treat!

:o I've been on the hunt for them too.
Got a GTi front grille but it would give such a great look if all grilles could be honeycomb.
Fingers-crossed someone can track them down soon!!

Loving those lower grilles on the silver Polo!
I've done extensive searches and can't find any for sale, wonder if they're home made? Nearest I could find is the Caractere front bumper with mesh grilles. Available in the UK from the likes of Awesome GTI.

Coming to think of it, you're right they are similar to Caractere ones and I suspect that the bumper is Caractere too.

See the RS badge on the grille, usually also with caractere kits.

GB anyone?
