Does your Polo GTI has load lip protective shield

Post by kevinctr »

Under the standard specification for the 2012/2011 models. Its mentioned the car comes with Load lip protective shield. I cant seems to see it on the bumper.

Anybody has this item? Is this item a clear film across the bumper or a chrome looking protective strip for the rear lid?

Does your 2012 GTI comes with DAB fitted as standard also? My car seems to be missing with these 2 items.

Anybody can advice?

Mine was delivered last week and it only had DAB as I had paid for it. The free DAB was only recently announced I believe - possibly only for orders placed in last few weeks. (mine being ordered 10 weeks ago being too early for this addition)

Re the lid protector - mine has raised plastic ridges on the bottom trim - thats baout it.

I think the load protector is the interior trim piece across the boot opening right behind the seal. :D
