Richard Grant do a nice boot cill protector, I've got one in carbon fibre effect, practical and looks good. Fits well and an easy couple of minute job. Door cill covers from the same source are an excellent buy.

You clean the cill with the supplied alcohol wipe, take the protective strip off the double sided tape, place in position and press for a minute, that's job done really easy and they are a perfect fit. I've dealt with RG over the years, they are a top firm to deal with.

I had a rearguard on my previous car for five years, it remained in perfect condition and firmly fixed. The fact I ordered them for the BGT before it was delivered indicates what a high opinion I have of these useful bits of kit.

Don't be so lazy, Google Richard Grant or Rearguard then wade through the site, it's all in there.

If you are worried about the fit you can trial fit without exposing the adhesive strip, in the very unlikely event of a misfit they can then be sent back for refund.

Sorry no part numbers, I wish that I was so organised. Being a simple soul I just went on the site and entered the car type and said what I wanted.

If you think about it the hatch and the hole it fills are the same on all current Polos, I might be wrong but I think the top profile of all the bumpers is identical, the differences are all lower down so probably one size fits all however if you have specified model in your order and have a screen print you can't really go wrong.
