improving aerodynamics with OEM parts

"4" is "Verkleidung Hinterachse" = "Hinterachsverkleidung" = rear axle cover:

Easy and quick to install !!
Part numbers for 2a and 2b will come soon, these are OEM-parts from Audi TT and A3.
Attention, all these parts at the rear do fit fwd cars only !!
@ Robin:
I know that the Golf V doesn't need additional braces. But when I saw the braces
on page 1 I'd too show You these.

That brace will do nowt, Robin. Unless they can prove me wrong..

me too , looks like the only thing it will do is lighten your pocket , mk5 is stiff enough for road use which 99.9% of car on here do . also "my thoughts only" if you have a mk5 really stiff on the back defeats the point of indapendant rear corners
the bruce:
I guess we all agree to this. :wink:
2a & 2b:
left side: 1K0 511 539 E 5,12 €
right side: 1K0 511 540 C 5,30 €
8E0 825 267 0,44 € 4 x
Pease note: little bit tricky to fit !!

Really interesting stuff here. I wonder if they make any difference to fuel consumption?

a very small amount at highway speed :wink:
Most parts are factory fitted to the eco Golf TDI blue motion, so they should make a difference.
My main motivation was reducing aerodynamic lift at the rear (~ 35 kg @ 200 km/h) for better
stability when high speed cornering. I don't like huge wings, so I went for invisible parts.
