What are the options to fit on my newly arrived GT TDI and let's see some pics please?
-
What no reply?
Have I been outcast for having a lowly GT, or because I've strayed from the Mk2 section?
Don't worry. I know my place.

Give us chance, everyone is still suffering from the 1 hour jet lag!!
How big is a GT spoiler? The GTI/D one is probably a little bigger.
Or here's a Votex (OEM VW) one as fitted to the car owned by the guy I bought my BBSs from:

Prices? f**k knows. Phone your unhelpful local dealer for half arsed info (if your local dealer is anything like mine).
There are a few VW parts guys selling on ebay, these boys will undoubtedly be a lot more helpful than some of the dealer guys I've had the misfortune to deal with.

^^^^^^I'd seen that one somewhere, but am not sure I like the underside of it. I'll have to look at a GTI one and see what the differences are.
The GT doesn't have a spoiler as such.

I think this is the one in the picture above

Here's a sort of shot of the underside of my GTI spoiler.

The Votex one clips over the existing one I think. That means the high level brake light doesn't need to come off. The GTI/D one completely replaces the smaller spoiler by the looks of it and incorporates the brake light.
In other words I reckon the Votex one is probably easier to fit and cheaper.
Nice GT BTW, not as nice as your MK2 though. :smiley:

Get some Chrome yeti tips on that GT :) will look good with a spoiler. Also there is another spoiler on eBay that I like the look of, sticks out about as far as the gti spoiler but doesn't have a lip that flicks up on it :)

The good thing about a Votex one on a new GT is that it would be covered by the various warranties.

Having seen the two options, I think I prefer the look of the GTI one. I'll borrow someones reg number and get a price from TPS.
Yeti tips are on the to do list as well. How do they fit on?
Thanks for the comment on the Mk2 Exonian :smiley:

So what do you call it?
The standard one is ok the bigger you go the more $hit it pulls up of the road and on to the rear window which is a fault of the Mk6.

It's something and nothing of a spoiler. I'm not too bothered about the $hit on the back. It's nothing compared to how dirty a Mk2 gets in a very short distance. (Not that my current one goes out in the rain)
