But I guess I'll have wait till they go on sale

Bargain, I'll take 2..!

I bet that will look really smart.

I wonder if this will work with cars with ACC as the radar sits in the middle of the grille on those?    Be top of the list of mods for me if it is!

Nah

As they do the radar support bracket as well, I'd think so but you may need a new bracket

Well spotted, hopefully it is then, not a massive fan of the grille style, would look much better with this! 

Remember to budget for an ACC/Radar realignment if you touch the radar, and have seen quotes for this over £500

I was quoted £465 by my dealer for the recalibration. Not cheap!

Captive market right now as Skoda haven't sold the software to any 3rd parties, Autoglass couldn't recalibrate my LA Camera FFS

Really?! I had a Windscreen replaced by Autoglass earlier in the year and they recalibrated it no problem. Just had to take it to their unit rather than them coming out to me.

Ahh I see, shouldn't be too long before they can then I'd imagine. You need a new windscreen already though?

Thin glass apparently although, I'm still blaming the Evo X I was playing with the other morning fortunately, the repair didn't work so, they replaced the screen under warranty & I've only paid a tenner towards the excess

Wow amazing. 

€500 for calibration is nothing if you want the mod enough to pay €10,000 for the grill...

I would just use the money to buy a whole car with a better grill....
