Looks like a reflector or something similar.  American version of the bumper?
Cheers,

Yeah thats the US spec bumper with side markings.

I think they look bloody awful, and 99% of VW Vortex agrees with me.  They clutter the side of the car.

US clear side marker, usually they're orange. I'm quite odd in that I think they look quite good, but I'm not brave enough to cut the bumper. I've thought about importing a US bumper but meh. Too much effort for two small LEDs.

You'd like you were in an unmarked old bill GTi with those on the side...

...You might as well get some grill strobes at the same time  :laugh:
