improving aerodynamics with OEM parts

Hi all
Was having a butchers under my golf sport today as it was on the ramps, and it looks like most of the underneath of the car is actually covered....
its got both of the side covers, the large undertray under the engine such that the only thing exposed is the ends of the subframe.... do i have much else left to retrofit?! probably going to get a new set of front trays as the current one is battered after 152,000 miles!

Ok thanks :) I've got the tsi so guess I won't have it. I'll get a picture when its dry here and post it up for advice. Can I install most of these covers without a ramp? I.e. just on the ground? Cheers :)
mkviken:
the under tray you definitely don't need a ramp, I've taken mine off a few times now

True but with the full undertray its not quite as simple because of the size and having to get the bolts into the alloy subframe but can be done easy enough by jacking the car up and put it on axle stand, its how i took mine off the last time on the floor as the car has to go back in to the dealers for the a wastegate clip and i was not letting the monkeys there rip the full undertray off so put the half one back on.
Comparison photo of the small half cover and the full cover, (Posted earlier) think we have all done them but this one shows it best imo.
Also fixed most my old photos in this thread :ashamed:
