Stealth was right, I had them on my Ed30 but they were fronts only and had been colour coded to the car so were the mutts nuts!  :innocent:
Do you have any pics left to show these guys how awesome it can be?

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

Über-cool in my book :notworthy: the black works with the black side skirts & bits, well I think so, maybe it's the combination of black & white



Also über practical when you live down a farm track, I like washing my car but in the winter it can get real messy, these help keep the sh*te off (only got them on the front)

sorry but on the golf, or what looks like a normal car, rally mud flaps just look silly. i have a tendancy to laugh out loud at them whenever i see them.

each to their own but the OEM ones on the Golf, be it a MK5 or 6 or even 7 for that matter they do absolutely NOTHING and are a waste of time and money. plus they actually hold dirt and water against the body which is never good.

Mud baths are for people not cars!

so its a no from me.  :grin:

No, they're a red lip painted on to the wheels.
