Damn you must be OLD! lmao I've got virtually the same car as you and mine's more than double that on my dad's policy! On my own it would be 10 times as much.

Anyone know where i can get the genuine mats for my lupo? and cheap?

thanks.

Genuine mats turn up on ebay now and then, just have to make sure they are the genuine ones! lol

Could also try www.vagparts.co.uk, but you'll need to call, as they dont have any parts listed for the Lupo!

Lovely car by the way!! Soft Blue......ummm!! shades.gif style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shades:" border="0" alt="shades.gif" />

I want some Bosch Aerotwin Wipers. cant find lupo ones anywhere mad.gif style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":angry:" border="0" alt="mad.gif" />

Which ones do i need, Polo!?

I Found out that Bosch are actually Genuine VW Wipers but they box and Price are just different.

Bosch also made an announcment they have made for the lupo too, gawd!

Nice car, colour is mint.

There is some joker on ebay who charges more than dealer price for mats. I paid £17 for my Polo ones and he wanted £19.99 + £9.99 postage.

Pretty much twice the dealer price he wanted!!

im confused tho, if i go the gti way will i need to buy all the arms, covers, blades, etc etc?

i hear that the polo fits the rear!? correct?

I will measure the standard lupo ones then go to local halfords and measure the polo, and other vw makes to see which come closest.

Dont get to pick the lupo up till Friday tho, i hate waiting...

What other subtle genuine vw stuff can i get? im a VW Whore!

Anyone know of any probles with faded paint, if i remove the bump strips on the soft blue? and whats best way to do so?

Might see if i can get the original lower fog light grill and get it upspeced a little, if its possible, not sure if the loom is same as higher spec.

Thanks alot guy and gurls, this site is really helpful.

I'm after the genuine rear spoiler to now lol.

The GTi way will need new arms and blades, but aftermarket aero blades fit to the existing arms. I got some aftermarket ones for mine, not bosch ones though. I had to bend the drivers side blade slightly to fit the shape of the windscreen. Sizes I got were 19" passenger blade and 21" drivers side blade.

Polo rear wiper goes nicely on the back.

Get some genuine VW mudflaps!!!!!

I also would be interested to know if the wiring for the fog lights is in every loom confused.gif style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":confused:" border="0" alt="confused.gif" />

Yeah, i've just done this to my sport.

I did it the easy/expensive way, just rang the local dealer got them to order me a set of gti arms and blades. Was 98 quid all in, i think 31.45 for the arms each, and then about 10.50 ish for the blades each

Very easy to fit too, took me about half an hour or so
