I have just recently purchased a 2015 Polo 1.2 tsi, which i believe is a 6C.
If i am correct i am finding it very difficult to find exterior body upgrades, such as rear/front bumper extensions, spoilers and mirror caps.
Is this due to 6R parts fitting 6C cars?
or can you just not get many aftermarket/vw 6C parts?
Thanks in advance

Re: 6R/C Parts
I ordered a stainless steel look Plastic Loading Sill Protection part n. 6R0061195, which i was told by the garage where i bought the car was compatible with my polo beats 2017 and found out it wasn’t. So the exterior body of the car especially the front and rear bumper are different between 6R and 6C.
I bought this one on ebay which fits perfectly and is real stainless steel:

Also for stainless steel pedal set i ordered:

For the rear trunk i got the following chrome trim:

Thanks for the response,
Would you know if GTi parts fit the 6c?
Such as a Maxton Design front splitter?

Re: 6R/C Parts
If someone can correct me but i think the polo GTI have different bumpers from the non GTI. Looking at those front racing splitters it specifically says facelift GTI so a 6C GTI.
I even found a front GTI bumper that can be fitted to Polo non GTI.

Re: 6R/C Parts
The mirror caps on the 6R and 6C are the same. so that's some relief
