Think so.....makes it look like a shopping trolley I suppose - handle to push the car along like.

The plate insert mentioned is the mid bit on the front bumper I take it?

Anyway Ryy....I'm curious to see how those wheels look on your car. You posted any pics of your ride on here yet??

:yes:

Wigit mate,

Was that car open for all and sundry to sit in etc at BVF? I'd be worried about the number of kids getting in there and getting overly excited etc, hence my car was locked at GTI when on the main dealer stand :)

Wow so the seats in that car has seen a lot of bums then!

Nice :)

When was BVF? Middle of summer? So lots of sweaty minimally dressed people sliding in and out of that car!
Hope whoever buys it has given it an industrial strenghth deep clean inside etc. :)

Wow. Not hilarious in the slightest that trade of "stuff" (extra letter and more friendly) above. But I'll humour you with a "meh".

That wing (can we call it a mid spolier) actually goes with the side lines (below side window and above door handle). If you look at it from the side, you actually notice that. It does look OTT, but trust me (well, OK, IMO), it gets better with time and looks more special. Not the best (OMFG @ some TTRS's / A5 ABT diffuser / spoiler etc) but diff.

Looking at that 2nd pic, can't believe how small that OE top spoiler is!!

If that was a bigger one then you'd prolly not need the mid one.

But at the end of the day, modding and bodykits is about making a car unique to the owners taste.

Some will like it, some won't. As long as YOU like it then that's all that matters.

I'm getting into the festive mood already. :)

Well the rims are just too bonkerly (if thats a word :lol: ) expensive :eyepop: :cry: I am ordering the front from abt and the plate insert, now the only issue that remains are the rims still have no idea what to go for. But i beleive in modding my car step by step so i enjoy every time i add a new peice if you know what i mean. Im guessing ill be buying the rims in about 5 months time or so. BTW the golf r just arrived (and yes sadly the scirocco r wont be coming any time soon) and the rims look crazy so i think i might go for them. For general info in the middle east the golf r and scirocco r are coming at 255bhp :no:
