Rear Bumpers for 2008 GT tdi 140

newbie post as i'm mulling replacing my 2005 e87 120d with a GT TDi (with a few mods - see below).
Love the look of the MK5 R32 rear bumper/valance. Found one of these (
http://www.ppcgb.com/products/ppc-gti-exhaust-r32-look-rear-bumper-with-reflectors-fntng005
) but am unsure if it'll look weird with the exhaust on a 140 tdi (I know it'll work with a 170 due to the twin pipes but I here they're a bit more problematic engine wise)
Cheers,
Pij
Build Plan:
Osir FCS GT2 (V3/4) Front Splitter
PPC GTI Exhaust R32 Rear Bumper
GTI Side Skirts
Diederichs Radiator Grille kit (mesh)
VW R36 style Alloys (18 x 8”)

They do one without the exhaust cutout, I plan to put that on my 140. Get a 140 and get it re-mapped to 170-180, that's what I also plan to do on mine

Cheers for the info fella. the non cutout version you mention doesn't appear on their website, are you sure they do one?

You can easily put a GT170 or GTI backbox on, or extend the pipes as a 140 has hidden dual pipes.

Get a used Gti exhaust on eBay then just get an exhaust fitter to cut and weld it
Looks the business
