Title: Oettinger Style Spoiler
Post by: MjrSharpe on 21 August 2017, 11:56: Hi all. I'm consdering getting a tailgate spoiler for my gti. I really like the oettinger one, but its around £500 from the US, before paiting and fitting. I found this one, http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/FRP-Rear-Roof-Spoiler-Lip-Wing-Fit-for-VW-Golf-VII-7-MK7-Unapinted-2014-2017-/252007788999?hash=item3aacd5b1c7:g:EFcAAOSww5hZIn4Z, which is basically the same as the oettinger one. I would probably get it done gloss black to match my mirror caps / wheels. Any thoughts?

Why buy it from the US when you can get a genuine Oettinger spoiler in the UK for around £300?? :wink:

Thing with cheap fleabay spoilers is, what is their fitment like??

Post by: I wanted a GTi on 22 August 2017, 10:24: RSD used to be the Oettinger dealer here in the UK and where based outside of Banbury but then moved to Daventry.

Many a £ I left there back in the day and if things haven't changed then Trish who owns it with her husband loves a bottle of Bulmers.

Many thanks, that's a great help. I think it would be best to go for the real deal rather than a rep from ebay, so thanks for the help :)
