lol, but Ben is -75mm on coilies,

and hes got a rieger front splitter, so something deep like the front would suit it?

Was thinking about my car actually

Lol nice pic.

Hoefele seem very similar to the GTi ones, maybe a little more pronounced.

Front end of my car has settled more now, looks really good.

Drove past your car the other day, my Mum works at the school nr you. Looks sweet mate! Have you got your splitter and spoiler done yet. Gonna get mine done next week. Might need a few pointers on fitting apparenltly its a bit of a f**ker

Cheers. I've yet to see yours with the new rims.

Nah spoiler and splitter are in my bedroom at the minute waiting to be painted still I just haven't had the time yet. Fitting isn't that hard, I tried out a Rieger splitter at one point but wouldn't last 2 minutes round here on these roads so it had to come off.

I'll happily help you out with fitting, just give me a shout.

i've got a mk4 with a 90mm reiger splitter and i think those votex skirts would be ideal as they're just like DSP skirts...where/how much??

[NickP]

£197.70+vat for the pair, delivery @ £8+vat.

From Martyn@ VAG parts. I'd just double check that they fit a mk4 tho. I phoned up Awsome GTI and they said that Mk4 skirts would fit on a Mk5

[polopowah]

mk4 sideskirts will fit on a mk5, only trouble is watch for how many doors it states (for 3/5 door etc)
although the mk5 side-sills are slightly deeper after checking mine against my grandmas mk4.

how much do you think it would cost to get a set sprayed an fitted?

[polopowah]

probably in the region of 130-150 quid mate.
nearer to London you are the moree expensive!

Votex ones are by far the nicest. very subtle and in my oppinion look standard to the car and should have come like that. I asked in the vagparts section and alan gave me the price. look for the thread there regarding the votex kit.

Dont like the hofele ones at all, they seem to curve.......think they are ugly and dont suit the lines to be honest.

just my 2pence tho.

eh!!!!!1 bloody hell thats expensive, could prob get them sprayed for about 60-80 quid up here. so much cheaper in north of scotland.

Max got his spoiler fitted and sprayed for £100 in london, so i would think it would be around that mark.

Those votex ones are nice - anyone know where to get them and how much?

[polopowah]

good god blimey this post brings back some memories!

those votex ones are still rare these day and dealerships seem to havestop suppyling them for some reason or other (maybe its because the the 16v models of the 6n2 have the same sideskirts as the GTI so they feel no need to make OE sideskirts for the baby 8v 6n2 anymore....shame

i still have sideskirts kicking about my parents house somewhere that fit a 6n2 but i never got round to fitting them

[polopowah]

hehe yeah and the slightly rippled effect of the paintwork on it! i know what you mean!
