Jetta rear bumper/lower valance - different styles?
« on: January 16, 2014, 01:55:48 pm »
I was looking through a big Jetta pics thread on VWVortex and noticed that a lot of them have a different rear bumper to mine.

Mine curves under the car, like this:



But others flare out, like this (hard to find a good pic of it, but the highlight/shadow picks it up here)



Is it a US-only thing?

Thanks.

Probably...VW seem to pull out some nifty stying tricks for the US market!
