Help Fitting GTi Middle Bumper Grille
Re: Help Fitting GTi Middle Bumper Grille
I dont think it is screwed on (lower, grill bumper). I was sure it just came out on my last polo without any screws being there.3LL1077 wrote:I need your help asap guys!

the grille itself is only clipped on, its just i cant unclip the original without takin the bumper off by the looks of things.
Its doin my head in lol
the lower middle grill is just clipper in. i believe its 8 clips 4 top and 4 bottom. if u have a thin flat head screwdriver it will make life a hell of a lot easier. just a question of finding the clips. or u could do wat i did. i pulled mine of and some clips broke so now i use 2 small black screws to attach it to the vertical thin plastic bars behind the grill. screw it to the 2 outer ones. also makes it easier for next time i take it of to continue my work when i finally get time of work.

Often snaps all the clips inside the bumper and on the grille lol!!Ollie_R wrote:Loop 2 pieces of strong-ish wire through the grille either ends, and pull hard. It should come out pretty easy.
Other than that, you can use zip-ties, and repeat the method above.
Bumper off is the easiest method by any means (tho some havent got the heart to start taking their car to bits!!)
