I think all the valances are interchangeable acros the standard gti's and 4 motions. Obviously teh R32 is a different kettle of fish.

How well they fit depends on them being genuine VAG or copies.

Yes both 4mo valances fit any model, I have both on mine  :smiley:
I often wonder why people never expect sarcastic comments from me - they're the only reason I speak...

Ok thanks for the replies.

I'm leaning towards the valances.

Cheers

LOL the funny thing is - I've just noticed the car already has both front and rear valances!

bloody good job I didn't but them.

This is what sucks about being at uni, living on a main street without a drive so not had that much chance to take a detailed look at the car!

Yeah you should have the front and rear plastic valances as standard. They will be subtley different from the 4motion ones, but no harm in rubbing them down and just colour coding the standard ones. It tidies up the look a great deal.
