How bad you think a Mk6 GTI rear valance will fit the mk5 R32 bumper?
« on: November 19, 2017, 08:31:59 pm »
So... Anyone own both a Mk6 GTI and a Mk5 R32?

Need to check how much difference the exhaust valance is from each other since I got a crazy idea maybe fitting the Mk6 GTI rear valance on my Mk5 R32 rear bumper hehe :)


What are your thoughts on this?

really, that's all you need to do before the dual exhaust GTI valance from the MK6 golf fit the Mk5 R32 bumper? :D

I'm so tempted to do this!!!  :party: :party:

Awesome this made the choice even harder now :D


Have to decide before friday :thinking:, and really wanted to fit the diffuser before that to see the fitment - but I'll take your word for it, if you were planning doing this yourself and have seen it been done  :pomppomp:

Ah lol , I've searched all over google for a topic with someone that have done this :fighting2:

Awesome, guess it'll be the mk6 gti valance and a Milltek system to go with it :D Just recieved my black ceroke milltek tips today, so it'll be ready for when the new systems should be fitted to the bumper at some point  :jumpmove:
