Title: Body parts difference
Post by: GTINovice on April 23, 2013, 12:34:22 pm

Hi  :smiley:
First post...
i needed a couple of bits for my mk5 ed 30 namely front bumper, front side wings and a ns light.
Just wish to know if I can use the same parts from a mk5 gti instead as I'M finding it tough to find any Ed 30 for breaking..
Thanks in advance  :laugh:

The front bumper is different on the ed30, at least the lower part is.

Wings are identical to any other Mk5 golf-a 1.4 base model through to the r32.

Front lights are the same as a normal GTI - you just need to check whether they're standard halogen or expensive xenon lights.

Also - welcome to the forum :happy2:

^^^^ only the splitter is different isnt it? Bumpers are the same?

bumpers are the same mate, just buy a gti bumper and buy the front lower spoiler seperately. otherwise its just a waiting game as complete edition 30 bumpers dont come by often

I believe theres currently a black OEM bumper in the for sale section on here at a good price....

again can confirm all parts are the same bar of course the lower splitter, which can be fitted to a GTi bumper, everthing else is the same and direct fit.
