You know when your spending too much...
« on: August 31, 2011, 08:56:25 pm »
... On your Golf when you visit your local VW dealer and they not only know you by your first name, but they start giving you a discount for regular custom!
Not that I am complaining! Told them I would be in next month to order my rear spoiler! :driver:

At least you know when you're spending too much - I don't!
Used to have Edition 30 - number 009 and a GT TDI 140.
Now have an S4 B8 Avant (stage 2)

Morty - I've only really started "modding" the Golf so they'll be seeing me a lot more. I think they like the idea of someone coming in wanting to improve rather than the normal servicing etc.
Skard - I know when I spend too much... Doesn't make me stop though. Boyf was trying to convince me that I should not put a GT front end on, and for a day I agreed, but have now said I'm going to do it, just in stages... Get the bumper, then spray it, then get the grilles and then fit it, rather than doing it all at once!

But is it genuine?

Can I ask something. Both ads mention intergrated brake lights are not included. Do these spoilers have brake lights on them? All I am after is just the spoiler, as I obviously have a brake light at the top already. Can someone confirm  :wink:

The R32 / GTI spoilers are different, due to the brake light included, as you already said. The spoiler you need is the one with a bit cut out of the spoiler to go around the your existing brake light, did i send you the part number a while ago? If not, il go check my spoiler and box in my garage later!

The third brake light on the GTI/R32 is different to normal Golfs, the unit itself is separate. It would look a bit odd with a GTI/R32 spoiler and a normal third brake light. This will give an indication of what I am talking about:
