Changed mine...
Pop the inserts off which are around the fog lights & then you'll see 2 screws :)
1-2 minute job
Paid £70 for mine off eBay

Can you get trade discount on a set of VW Motorsport alloys in gloss black? If so, i'll exchange my mint Boavistas with rubber for a set of them ;)

Can anybody tell me how to remove the GTI grill as I wanna change the silver badge to red. I tried all the screws I can see but I don't want to yank it and break something. :? Cheers Dan

Hey Danny boy, its canny easy to remove the front grill. First remove the screws then theres about four clips on the bottom of the grill just use a flat screwdriver to unclip them, then give it a gentle pull.. Thats what I did bud.

My Sel bottom grill is ordered, gonna paint the silver trim red to match my gti grill. I did previously put red tape on from halfrauds but kind of came off when I washed the car lol.
Think it would be better to paint the silver trim red so it dosnt wash off :-)
