I used some euro car parts front wings (hadrian I think) and the fit was awful. Gaps everywhere they shouldn't be and no amount of fettling would get them to fit right. One was worse than the other too.

In the end I got some fibreglass ones moulded from genuine VAG ones (they were a tenner a piece cheaper than the VAG metal ones, woon't rust and are 5kg lighter too) and the fit is beautiful.

My advice… Spend the extra for some genuine ones (or fibreglass ones moulded from genuine ones) and you won't be sorry.

be prepared to pay more at gpc than it states on their site. also, make sure you ask for a price including VAT, BEFORE postage. they didn't tell me their prices were plus VAT til i checked my balance. and they charged me VAT on my postage as well.

paid 62 quid in the end for a part which is listed on the site at 29 quid

That annoyed me too  :evil:

I also found their customer service very poor - they took my card number over the phone and made a mistake with it.  They phoned me back to correct the number and told me they would process it while I was on the phone and if it didnt go through this time then I would need to go somewhere else for my parts because he "didnt have time for problems like this" 8O   I was so shocked at his attitude that I didnt say anything at the time it was only later I realised how poor it was.

Refused to buy anything else off them again  :D  They can shove it where the sun doesnt shine  :lol: - I can get everything off their website cheaper elsewhere  :D
