Anyone on here got either of these sideskirts fitted??

I've seen the Hofele's on Awsome Gti and Hofele's website.

And the votex skirts on the last post in here http://www.tigerstyle.co.uk/poloforum/v ... d32b7bed97

But i would like to see some better pics if anyone has got any??

Can anyone point me in the direction before i go and blow a s**t load of cash on some.

I just want some similar to the standard GTI's. Cheers

bump!
those votex sideskirts are nice, but quite dear if i remember rightly from Martyn@vagparts.
230 odd quid for the pair but worth every penny :)

I'm not sure if i like the votex skirts, i managed to get hold of another pic showing a front angle and i think they look a bit chunky for my liking. Apparantly sideskirts for the polo mk4 should fit straight on a mk5 so i'm gonna try and find some of them. Anyone got any suggestions where to get some??

Damn thats sods law that is i like them skirts. You don't know where i could get hold of any others similar do you? I've kinda gone off the hofele skirts cos they are kinda curved.

well i suggest searching on ebay.de and type in 6n2, its all foreign to me but there are a few sideskirts going on there, but postage might be a bummer.

Ordered my hofele sideskirts yesterday, should get them within the next two weeks apparently.

Was gonna get them from cessories but they quoted me 6 weeks, so i asked awsome gti to do a price match. Good job really cos the actual price at cessories is now £175! :shock:

Gonna get my front splitter, rear spoiler sprayed at the same time. I'll post some pics up when its all done.

I can manage to fit the splitter and rear spoiler myself, but d'ya reckon its worth getting my sideskirts put on properly cos i don't want them to fall off or anything :lol:

Probably glued on, but i don't know till i get them. Rear spoiler looks easy, just prime and glue. Has got magnets on it to hold it place while its setting. Don't wanna f**k the sideskirts up so i might just get someone to do it for me
