What Are These Called?

[Peatey]

Just trying to track down the proper name for these clips, if anyone can help

Panel clips ?
Also look a bit like girder clips from the construction industry used for fixing things to the flange of RSJs

Looks a bit like a Tinnerman wire clip.

Those are clips that hold the sports line front spoiler on to the wheels arches, 2 needed each side. The little Lego knobble looking bit is a captive nut and the othe bit slides over the wheel arch.

Maybe try wheels arch clip. The closest thing I can think of is a modified U clip.

That's the ones I'm after i took off my sportline spoiler at the weekend, mine are rusty and seized solid. I've tried looking all over the internet, using the recommendations above, I've tried wheel arch clip, spire clip, U clip, fairing fasteners. I can get close but cant find the exact ones, I think i will cut them off and replace with something different

Have you tried you local VW spares? Maybe one of the after market guys could help you out?

@Peatey Did you sort some clips? Might be worth a phone call to see if they'll sell them separately?

T5 Sportline Lower Spoiler Fixing Kit

@Jamie2.0 Great minds think alike. I brought that exact fixing kit and it arrived today, so I'm going to replace the clips on my spoiler because the others are rusty

I've still not found any anywhere without hitting the phone and calling people, the closest i could find was a spire clip.

Many thanks for the link it's much appreciated

No worries, glad you managed to track them down!
