Title: TCR rear valance
Post by: H41ly on 02 May 2024, 21:04

Anyone put a tcr rear valance/ diffuser on there 7.5 if so where you order the parts from and any issues fitting them?

I’ve fitted the tcr rear balance to my mine, it fits using all the existing mounting points that the original gti one uses

I like the fact it's gloss black too rather than satin.
Anyone have a part number for it? Did the side skirts fit in a similar way?

I prefer the gloss black too, I’ve fitted the tcr skirts, rear valance and front splitter, also had the mirrors done gloss black. The rear valance was only a pattern one from eBay but doesn’t look any different than the genuine one. The side skirts were a bit more involved to fit as the support rail underneath them is in a slightly different place than on the original skirts so couldn’t use the existing mounting holes for that. The skirts themselves are double sided tape along the top edge and underneath they fit into existing mounting holes in the body

H41ly, I have a genuine VW TCR diffuser I may be selling. It's been professionally painted along the top edge in textured satin finish to match the GTi sideskirts and front. Let me know if this is something you may be interested in.

JB73, Car looks fantastic.

When you were looking at the TCR side skirts and rear valance, did you find good third party ones? I had a look at Voko who I believe did your front splitter but I couldn’t see that they did any of the others.

The rear valance is a pattern one but the sideskirts are genuine VW but they are very expensive for what they are

Yeah, I can imagine! I wanted to go down the OEM route for my GTI mods but the genuine parts are all expensive from what I’ve seen if you’re getting them new from VW. Will have to keep searching for third party copies.

I’ve looked at the side skirts also but they are quite expensive over £400 for each side

Yeah was just on £1000 for the side skirts and the support strips, I forgot to ask for a price when I ordered them
