No idea mate. What kind of spoiler are you after? Crazy lairyness or subtle OEM+?

If you're after a subtle OEM spoiler like the one fitted on the GTi, try VAGparts for a price. They come with a third brake light built in on the GTi but I *think* you can get them, or one very similar, without that third brake light if you want to. VAGparts, if they can supply the one you want, will supply the spoiler ready to be painted and fitted up so you'll have to factor in those costs too.

If it's crazy boy-racer stylez big-wing action you're after, try Ripspeed/Halfords :lol: and bolt it onto your roof as per the Saxo brigade :roll:

Yeah, the genuine VW spoiler for non-GTi models comes without the brake light built into it.

Quite expensive from VW dealers, think it was about £80.

£80 (for me at least) isn't too bad a price... until you remember that it needs painting and fitting on top of that :shock: :D

VW dealership quoted me £380 back when I had my 1.0E to supply, paint and fit the spoiler.

Think I left that dealership very quickly :lol:
