I'm pretty much wanting a GTI lip aswell, but god I'm going to get raped by VW, think I may just hold on for a little while. Defo loving the car mate!

Thanks mate. The splitter cost Â£40.16 +vat, but this was the same price as a 16v splitter so i thought id go for the gti splitter. I think yours is lower than mine tho. Have you managed to get it tracked yet?

At Pursers VW in East London they charge around Â£55 for a gti splitter.

Yeah, I got it tracked went to a place called Yaash Motorsports, down in NW London who sorted me out. After getting it done, my fronts scrub like a Btich, think I may wind it up a incy bit, tyres are just shredding!

Gutting, ah well you gotta weigh it up aint you, looks vs practicality and buy tyres every few weeks just aint feesable.

Heres the pics as promised...

This last pic is on my girlfriends drive which has a slight slope, so the front isn't usually this low, but I think it looks cool.

Hope you all like.

very nice, i've wanted to see how a gti splitter looks on a bumper smoothed like that! still wondering if I should lol

Anyway, guess your loving the new look BUT whats next on the cards?

The Smooth Valver bumper really sets that splitter off, nice work. I think you should smooth the number pate recess!, would look awesome! ~This makes me want to keep my valaver bumper and get round to smoothing it fully.

Damn money!

Very nice work mate.

Here's mine

Yeah it does look good but I think I just leave it as it is for now.
Next plans include my plates which are arriving today hopefully, changing the grill, black rear badge and possibly a black roof.
I saw a few polos yesterday with a black roof and I think I will suit the polo really well.
What do people reccomend painting or covering it?

NOZ · Post by **NOZ** » Tue Jul 29, 2008 3:07 pm

Paint it in gloss or satin black.

The best ones with black roofs are silver and red ones so your in good luck.
