Haha I'm wound down pretty much all the way on my jetta and its used everyday for work and family dutys although the ride ain't all that! And speed bumps are a right nightmare!! I'm just looking for something that offers a little comfort as I'm going to raise it 10mm for bigger wheels!

I did buy 6 additional screws for the support strips but decided to use self tappers from tool kit.

Stanipkiss:
I started to fit the skirts today, sorry for the poor pictures, the wife took the camera away with her to Montenegro visiting friends. these are from my  iPhone.
Started fitting the support strip with strong bond and self tapper screw at either end and in middle, tape is to hold in place till bond stuck. First N/S

Then O/S

Before (with winters on)

After (old summer wheels ( Looking for Pescara's)




At this pint things were going well, then I went to fit the O/S and then this happened!!


Front end fitted nicely, then


Bloody thing is too short!! Need to talk to VW Monday morning!!

Thanks for looking in

Steviedubs:
Nicely done! Thanks for the part numbers  :happy2:

What the hell is happening with the skirts? Could it be a golf one mis packaged?

Stanipkiss:
Cant be a Golf one as part number is stamped inside the skirt.
I also measured a Golf and it's the same length.
