Yes the Edition 30 bumper is all one part Steve. We had a big thread on this running a little while back when we discussed the R32 rear valance as well (which is 2 part). :smiley:
-
Omanyts :sad:
....Why??
-
Umm is that an R32....Is this somekind of optional extra kit? They don't colour code standard GTI yet you can get a diesel dressed up like this!
-
no its not an r32. its a 2.0 tdi. but i quite like the black center bit... so seems VW have just sprayed the two bits different if they dont come a part (as i didnt think the did)
-
I was only joking about it being an R32 - mainly because of the wheels :grin: I want a similar spray job on my standard GTI bumper (if I can't hold of an ED30 one)
-
oh, haha then :p
thing is, spraying whats already colour coded to black seems the odd way round... reqal shame it doesnt come off as a second part.

someone ought to do a stick on panel, that fits over the original, that way when you dont like it anymore you can remove the old one and go back to standard

would be nice

I like the way they stealth the exhaust so you can't see the diseasel smoke coming out of it :grin:

....OSIR already do. Available through the TTshop 01234 853 225 (you can mention my name).
I would add though that such a part needs to be very well stuck on! So, future removal would not be likely to be easy :nerd:

i may be wrong but that wont go on an edition 30 will it ?, i was meaning a panel for the edition 30
-
....Sorry I missed an Ed30 reference.
Unfortunately, no - It won't fit the one-piece Ed30 rear. Hurdy went through this and there's a long thread about it if you do a Search.
One of the Iceland Ed30's has a black painted section :-

yeh my first post in the other thread mentions it, thats where the question came from, perhaps a vinyl wrap could be done ?

....Yes, as I just said, I missed it - Apologies!
It's up to you of course but vinyl could be really nasty - Heat from the xzorsts, bubbles, and that assumes you could get it on successfully.

see how much better does that ed look!

....My Milltek quads get very hot and spit a lot of carbon. I don't actually know how hot the valance/exhaust-trim gets itself but I know there's plenty of hot action in that general area.
