The first link looks like the one the one that comes standard on the polo
The second one does look good, although I've never seen that one fitted

I have the Maxtor froont spoiler which fits great and loooks it too.

do you have a picture of it please?

They do make it for both the GTI/BlueGT bumper like I have and the normal Polo bumper.

^How come your lower grill/fog light surround is so shiny? Have you pained it?

Yes. All the black plastic, that being the grill, foglight surrounds and diffuser have been smoothed and painted gloss black.

It makes a HUGE difference to the look of the car compared to it not painted

As I just explained. The grills are painted gloss black. They are from the GTI. Since the BlueGT shares bumpers with the GTI they are a straight swap.

I just modified mine with blue stripes and cut out some of the back plate and the "badge plate" to fit the GT badge and have a stock look. The honeycomb hole next to the T uesd to be filled with a flat piece of plastic where the longer GTI badge clipped into.

Martin does your gloss black plastic surrounds and grills not chip like mad? My brother had it done on his ST it looked great but he said never again

I took three very important steps...

1. I dropped it off at the painter
2. I paid the painter
3. I picked the parts up from the painter

looool, which painter is this, i really would like to do this mod, it looks awesome!

It's one here in Denmark... But any automotive painter should be able to get as good a result.

Mine with lower splitter and gti grill with red bits wrapped blue and tsi badge
