Are GTI front wings the same as a standard Mk5?

There seem to be a variety of wings available on ebay and wasn't sure if the GTI front wings were wider or anything?

I'm sure I've seen estate front wings advertised as being not compatible with the hatch but I can't imagine why'd they be different.  :thinking:

I meant just the hatchback Golfs. Variants are different and even Jettas, I'm not sure.

Golf estates and Jetta's have an additional swage line that runs down the side and into the front wings, technically they will still fit as the size/fixing locations are the same.
