DSG boxes rule. I couldnt live without it now and dont think i could go back to driving with manual setup.

You would need to buy the full bumper, but they are pretty cheap on Ebay. the costs start adding up though when you add in re-spray cost of skirts and bumper + exhaust.
You could just go for the exhaust first, then just change the back box when you are ready to do the bumper section. :happy2:

Ok, I was doing this all the time but don't understand why this is helping to damaged DSG?

The Famous TT explained why, but i cant remember, all i know is you should never do it, there is a thread on another forum i will try and dig out which may shed some light. :smiley:
