Hiya
If it helps at all I think the part number is VPLAP0022
See there’s some on ebay but blimey there expensive , I managed to pick one up for my D3 on ebay
Fingers crossed one turns up , plus if I may say plse ensure it comes with the fixing kit as they can sometimes be obsolete
Hope that helps
Example pic of the one I have , also managed to get the spot light fixings , don’t know if they use the same kit as the D4

Don’t know if these are any good , ref what ur 2010 vin number is
IMHO, I wouldn't bother unless it's purely for the looks. I have one fitted and upon entering some water at Tixover at speed (but not excessive I have to say), the front disintegrated and much of it is now held together with screws and cable ties.
The D4 version isn't a patch on the D3 in terms of construction and doesn't look anywhere near as good.
My advice, save the money and put it towards general/routine maintenance!

See these are abit cheaper , £399 , noted as old stock and may have some marks
Shame the D3 A bar doesn’t fit , assume the D4 has a different bumper contour

VPLAP0108 - not sure if you can get them but they are listed in parts sites in the UK...look very meaty
