Fitting a Golf Lower Spoiler

[Karl_CLCoupe]

I have just got a Mark3 Golf lower spoiler for my front bumper. Thing is I'm not sure whether I can get a rivet gun or drill into the sides of the spoiler to attach it to my bumper. How have people attached theirs?



This is why I ask. At the sides, the bottom of the spoiler goes further than the top, making it a pain to try and get a drill into the spaces to drill holes for the rivets.

Thanks.

i jst took my front bumper off, turned it upside down & while a m8 held it in rough position drilled holes through the bottom of the bumper. Seems to line up pretty well tho!

Is it the same one as I've got, the one thats deeper at the front than the sides? If so, any cutting required?

Thanks.

karl the chin spoiler you have got johnyT has also got on his red polo i think he should be able to lead you in the right directions about fitting it let me know how you get on because im thinking of fitting the same spoiler to my polo

When I was at Polo Show, I saw a G with the exact same spoiler fitted. I had a natter to the guy who owned it, and besides giving me a detailed spec of the motor, he said you need to trim approximately 6 inches off, so 3 inches off each part of the spoiler (its in 2 bits). When I get chance, I'm gonna get it all sorted, and can tell you the exact amount to take off. They do look very good though.

mine is off a mk2 GTi (i think) so thats why itll be different then it fits nicely tho.
