In my opinion I would just go plain black. I think having GTI scribed all over the car is too much. I just prefer the one GTI 6 on the boot really. Keep it simple  But that is just my opinion. |

Plain black for me too. I'm not a fan of the flappage as it is but ones with logos are far worse especially when you see Subarus with bright blue logos on them.________________________________________ Less than 24 hours to go! |

I have never even thought of putting them on mine so unless you really really need them I wouldn't bother. |

They do a good job if you use your car through winter Fronts only on the 306 though imo, rears look crap and only a small part of rear bumper gets protected by them  ________________________________________ Red GTB1756 powered Fabia VRS daily driver,LBSC Gti6 eater........Mac1 ZR R1 kit car build in progress. |

i have flaps on mine,with red gti on them. They save the side of your car getting covered in s**te and stonechips,and you cant really see the GTI bit unless you stand about a mile away |

I love flaps, but mine catch when the suspension compresses on the road and unfortunately (as fitted by a previous owner) they're clipped onto the wing and these knocks have caused it to pull off the wing... pulling the pain off with it________________________________________ Red Rallye - Rolling "restoration"Wishbone Polybushes available |

Cause you certainly moan like one Just not to keen on the idea that they are ripping the self tapping screws out the sills and the arch liners. Can't be good can it? Also chap asked for opinion on them. I think the fact that they do protect the sills is a good thing. But going crunch over every speed hump isn't the greatest. ________________________________________ Previous china gti6 and Rallye owner.Now a proud Astor Gti 6 owner. Missing he BMW already... |

I dont mind them. They look okay and not over the top which is always good. Scraping would annoy me though.________________________________________ See the sheer power and might of the lesser known burrowing owl. |
