I spend alot of time in Retail parks (work, not pleasure) and the last ones saved a few dinks......

Agree not as nice, but may stop the tin foil (sorry bodywork) from a trolley!

Lucky escape I reckon, they look terrible! No point trying to protect the slight risk of damage by making them permanently ugly... a bit like leaving the plastic on the seats, putting clunky covers on your iPhone, etc  :smiley:

I am on your page Joel. Hate those revolting open rubber condoms on phones. What are those tasteless sods thinking? :sick:
Side mouldings are probably more revolting and permanently disfigure the whole car and protect fcuk all!
One of the reasons the Mk6 looks so much better than the Mk5. :smug:

The mouldings on my mk5 didn't stop some inconsiderate 4x4 owner from putting a nice ding in my nearside front door.

Agree, they are ugly, especially the VW retro-fit ones available for the mk6; they're not even colour-coded to the car. They only come in a textured black finish so have a low rent halfrauds look to them.

I certainly aren't having them on my mk6, if it ever gets built  :angry:; but that's another story!

VW do sell side door mouldings - i think it depends on your car colour as to whether or not they suit the car.
