hes sorted the part number, i didnt bother i just went in and asked for it, you unclip the bottom piece of ur old one n push in the new one. just clips. no fitting brackets or anything like that. dont need to remove ur bumper either.

Just checked current prices from vw for the gti valance and it costs - £50.13 inc VAT.

And i cant get the valance off, any ideas anyone?

Ive undone the bolt in each wheel arch at the bottom, undone the 3 screws - two by exhaust and one on the right by the tow hook.

But its like clipped in the wheel arch or something, i cant get the bloody thing off from there. checked the polo9n3 forum with pictures but its not very clear on the pulling off bit.

if youve removed all the screws it needs unclipping now start from side which is the hard bit then it ll come out easy towards the middle. if you can luk behind it you can push out clips with a flat screw driver
