I dont know but dont think so.

The fronts will fit anyway as the body will be the same. And to be honest you cant really tell the difference between normal and g60 rears.

cheers hmmm.. thats what i thought anyway so was just after some confirmation, that was my other idea just doing fronts, do you know if you can buy them seperatly or do you have to buy a full set?

or possibly i might just de-arch it altogether...... :smiley:

Front & rear arches & sills are identical on 3 & 5 door Golfs, and Jettas too :)
Only the rubbing strips down the sides differ for obvious reasons ;)

i am sure you can get five door g60's! so i guess you must be able to get the rubbing strips for it!

The rubbing strips are the same between the G60 & 90 spec GTIs, as well as the side skirts.  I meant 3 & 5 door rubbing strips differ ;)
