Fitted my GTD with them - pre-facelift.
I'd go and source them on eBay from a mains dealer advertising on there. Usually up to 50% cheaper than if you ask at dealer.
Fit yourself in 1 hour.... including lifting car and removing / refitting wheels.

Are the mud flaps the same for pre & post facelift? Does anyone have the part numbers? I'll be buying and fitting them myself asap.

Does anyone know the "dealer fitted" price?

Ordered my GTI on Monday and was specifically asked by my dealer if I wanted mud flaps.
I had not included them and the salesman was going through options I may have missed.

Just got my facelift GTI and went to fit mudflaps purchased online from a VW dealer. They were specifically for the GTI but the rears didn't fit! There is a cutaway in the flap to fit over the black edging on the bumper which was way too small. Careful cutting with a scalpel (I had to cut quite a lot of material out) got them to fit perfectly. 20 minutes to do the job.

Just responded to the same question posted by the OP in the 'general' section of the forum. Fronts yes, rears; doesn't appear so.

Includes a link to VW's used car section of the website that shows a mk7.5 GTD with front mud flaps but no rears.

Interested in this as I have flaps on my Mk7 GTD and getting a facelift GTi soon. Wondering would my current front flaps fit the new car, don't think the rears will do as the gtd doesn't have the GTi rear valance.
