Yep, I have a PPCGB rear with the left side exhaust exit. I'm really pleased with it.

I got off of Ebay, the quality is ok, looks better that the standard rear off my TDI.  Fit is decent, it lines through with the wheel arches nicely.  Only thing is I think it sticks out slightly further at the back than a genuine one.

However for the price I paid it does the job and looks pretty good.  Only reason I went non-genuine is because my car is Graphite Blue and R32 parts in that colour are non-existent so by the time I'd had a genuine one re-painted I'd have been paying big money.

Mine is from ebay: http://www.ebay.com/itm/261346495307 (http://www.ebay.com/itm/261346495307).

As fitted:

It fits like an OEM. I'd prefer an OEM but for the price and not needing to change my exhaust tips, it was a good deal.

Cheers

Is there a uk supplier for that exit style and does it have clips to fit to the upper half like oem? Or does it bond on? Cheers

^^^^ If your after a R32 style rear with standard zorst exit and are not to bothered about fitment (as they aren't as good as OEM obviously) then but this one, UK supplied.

 It's a one piece ABS bumper. Only thing you don't get (which you'll need) is a rear tow hole but making a nice tidy hole is no biggy.
