I have just become an owner of a mk5 gti dsg on a 57 plate with 29k on the clock now the wife doesn't like the back end of the car and would like to change it to look like the mk5 r32 like my sons r32 so Has anyone done this conversion yet on their mk5 gti

Cant tell you the sound but will have to have a exhaust made up to go to the tips and change the bottom half of the bumper for the r32 insert

I'd get on the phone to milltek or scorpion, see how much of the exhaust is the same, get what you need of the exhaust and attach it to the standard exhaust, i would imagine that they take the same route under the car.

Shouldnt be anymore than half a day if the exhaust is made to join upto the centre section.
Jack up car. Take exhaust off. Remove rear bumper.
Split the bumper.
Fit new section and exhaust.
Possible weld a hanger to car for rear box. Lower car and admire work
