Front bumper : Gti or R32??
« on: September 20, 2015, 12:08:11 pm »
Hey guys,

Which one shall I go for? Seem to change my mind every time I see the other one!

Really don't find the standard one on my 1.6 Fsi attractive.

Either would have to be without the GTi/R32 logos on the grills!

Depends what colour car you have I think the chrome R32 grille looks better with darker colour cars and the black gloss GTI grille better with lighter colour cars

You do know that the gti and r32 is a different bumper completely
Unless your thinking of the Jetta grill

@jaffa Yes I do know they're completely different bumpers! I just meant I wouldn't have a GTi badge on the grill of the best GTi bumper and I wouldn't have a R32 badge on the grill if I got that bumper.

And @carpy25 if I'd get a GTi one it would be with a gloss black trim and silver lipstick! not a fan of the red

Cheers rob
Also wondering if anyone's had any experience with the £89 concept rs rear valances?
I'm gonna go for the r32 rear valance without the r32 exhaust holes
