Is this aesthetic or does it provide any functionality?

Don't know. It might afford less purchase for a chasing monster's talons??

Good aero mod, creating a taper effect rather than having a big drag effect behind the flat back - as seen on Nova SRs....
Sideways yo!

Maybe it will help with the 'dirty bum' problem Golf's seem to suffer from. Gotta say the MK6 is worse than the MK5!!  :fighting:

Gotta say in white that looks spot on (to me). Quite like the wheels too though not from a cleaning aspect.

Looking forward to a 40 year version, not looking forward to the price it will be though.
Probably be a 40 as well the way it's going...
