Looks like its from a golf r. Nice but if you put it on it would look like your trying too hard to make an r copy. Just my opinion  :happy2:

Very nice. Think you would need to give the car a rear R as well otherwise it might look uneven, if that makes sense.
At the Stealers yesterday perving at a 2 year old moredoor Candy White R with the 19" gloss black Talladega's. Had to sit down after that!

I do like that a lot. :happy2:
Makes it look like a more normal front end with an upper and lower seperate grill,rather than the wide-mouth frog look that the MK5 was blessed with after Audi introduced that dumb grill design. :stupid:

Looks very much like the MK6 R. I actually prefer the oem mk5 front :happy2:

Also IMO you would need to sort the rear with a matching bumper if you went for that, as MC71 mentioned.

Found these guys a while back after i followed a link on here and they seem to do really good stuff, great place to get hold of lower rear valances in the R32 style but with side or quad exits  :wink:
