Title: Golf GTD rear diffuser
Post by: johnboylds on 16 May 2013, 18:10

Hi guys,

On my way home from work yesterday, I spotted a 60 plate black GTD with a nice rear diffuser that I thought looked perfect. In my opinion, the plain black trim looks so poor in comparison to the mk6 GTI, but I don't want to change my exhaust so had been on the lookout for a while.

I actually attempted to follow the car, to see if the owner would tell me where he got it, but a Prius got in the way sticking to 25mph and I lost him! I spent most of yesterday searching forums and googling and I think I've the same diffuser...

here's the link http://www.zmaxautosport.com/gtistreva.html (http://www.zmaxautosport.com/gtistreva.html)

As you'll see the only place I've found that sells it is in the US - does anyone recognise this part, and perhaps know where I can find it closer to home?

Oh, and if it was your black GTD I was stalking round Leeds yesterday, I can only apologise!

this looks a nice one, although I'm pretty sure it's a custom modded diffuser seeing as the rear reflectors have been smoothed and added to the diffuser...

You mean the "r"eflectors  :wink:

Yeah that looks really good, why didn't VW do that?  :rolleyes:

The reflectors haven't been smoothed, that's the R-Line rer bumper, different design to the GTi/GTD.
