Hi just wondering has anybody replaced the standard chrome girlle surround with and sportline black one?

 

Looking to change mine is it a bumper off job or can I do it without removing the bumper?

 

Many thanks

Aaron

According to the guys from the dealership, the front bumper should be removed as well.

I've checked with my dealer as well and It is a bumper off job. I will wrap mine with a piano black folio instead of replacing it with a black one.

Thanks guys I was hoping I could break it to pieces like the mk3 octavia 😔 oh well it will be bumper off when I get it 👍

I was in the same dilemma as you replacing the front grill with a new one from Sportline. Wrapped mine at a professional studio with a piano black PPF. Looks a factory job and the the grill itself is protected from stone chips.

Where did you get the black skoda badge superskoda? 

Was it expensive to wrap the grille? It looks really good

The front badge is from Ali Express, but it is a decent quality. I cannot really quote the price of wrapping the grill only as it was a part from wrapping the whole front end with clear Lumar bra as well as the side mirrors. I also dechromed the line between the fog lights. In any case it should not be so expensive considering the fact, that if you would like to replace the front grill with a new black one from Sportline, you should get the bumper off.

Thanks my car is in next Tuesday finally to get done 

Finally got my grille done.

Ended up putting the orignal on and the bumper off job isn't so bad but really makes the car

Nice touch! Now is the time to add the front spoiler from the Sportline version😁

It's very expensive the sportline splitter looking at getting a maxton v1 or v2 splitter instead.

Would love a 15mm drop aswell but don't want to void the warranty

Brothers in arms

Next week I’m going to wrap the front bumper Style trim as well.

RS spoiler’s the next thing you can try to add on it.
