yeah it is a crazy price, but some peeps on Seat Cupra.net have been and paid the DEALER price, which is even more. Crazy.
The Seat Sport one is supposed to be the best one, I did a lot of reading up on it before I bought mine. The Forge one requires cutting to fit the Ibiza (well to fit the pipes) but I am not sure on the Polo. But Factory looks best if you ask me!

the only cutting required to fit on mine was the fog light cover thing, but that was only with the standard slat design one, with the honeycombe one its hassle free and does not touch at all
it gives a cheeky view of the intercooler piping and the cooler its self
forge for the win, subtle yet there

took forge abot 6 hours from start to finish excluding lunches and breaks, all in all was about 9 hours, but this included the testing and development plotting on the laptops too

you may save money lempeh, but you may also lose performance
its not just the size of the core, but its quality and finish, hence its durability and reliability
i dont doubt unless front ended, this one will see my car out problem free
