Cupra polished front strut brace, where from?

[Reuvers]

You serious? Damn! Already ordered and on transport....

no way to get them to fit?

 

[mr_D]

when you get them. Try and fit them. They will either work or not

 

[Reuvers]

Thanx Mr D...some good bit of info there...

 

[Reuvers]

The guy still hasn't replied on shipping costs....if only he knew that many people might order if it does fit...

 

[mr_D]

i ordered ones that didn't fit. I made them work and they open my bonnet more than standard which is good for working on it.

 

[Reuvers]

By the way and if you search UK ebay for "Upper strut VW" then a couple turn up for around 27 quid for the golf 4 Gti/ VR6 year 99 till 02....
maybe worth a shot?

a lot of work? or not so much?

 

[mr_D]

noting serious. There just tight getting on. Thats it really. Lol

 

[Reuvers]

You guys thinking the 99-02 strut for VW gti and VR6 will fit then?

 

[__B3NNY__]

I hope it doesnt fit as i pick mine up on monday and its cost me abit more than $38.99!

 

[Reuvers]

And you hope it doesn't fit because...??

Which one did you get then? For what car and is it polished?

 

[__B3NNY__]

Im being sarcastic mate, keep your hair on.

I went on and got my seat sport one chromed as it seemed the only deffinate answer at the time. Its cost me £110 to be stripped and chromed. Thats why i hope it doesnt fit because it would have been alot cheaper for me to get this one if it does.

 

[Reuvers]

Oh yeah I see...you were also the one who started this thread. My bad...

I am still waiting on that shipment quote,...

thinking that guy is taking well long....whilst he could be getting so many orders from here lol!

 

[Reuvers]

Ok guys...I just got a quote...

$79.99 for just the shipping!!! and that for an item which only costs $38.99 that;s rediculous.
I only paid $75 for shipping of my entire downpipe with decat...so I think this is a tad too high.
I will keep searching as I already saw one company who sent it for $25 so that;s good...but it was the 4 bolt strut bar...

But thinking this is a no go...what you guys think?

 

[Reuvers]

Just found a front upper strut for Mk4 all models 98-02 for 43 pounds delivered to netherlands....think i'll take the plunge...

 

[Reuvers]

This one is for a VW GOLF MK4 GTi TDi 20v TURBO FRONT UPPER STRUT BRACE

So should fit, however I prefer the round mounts...looks a little bit meaner...

 

[Reuvers]

What you guys think?

 

[mr_D]

a but you have to think about it not fitting. If it doesn't fit then your wasting money and will end up having to buy the right one. My advice! Buy the seat sports one and get it chromed.

 

[PhilW]

Someone is selling a seat sport one thats been stripped in the for sale section. Just get it chromed.

 

[Myki da Pyki]

Only thing with the seat sport ones is that they arent alloy so eventually its going to corrode even if it is chromed.

Im going to wait and see what alloy ones pop up
