I know, I think you should ditch the 205's because they're WAY too wide for 6.5's

:angry: I want that splitter

Buy the car! Comes with the splitter :grin:

Or if the car sells I'll have a US style bumper with US splitter for sale :wink:

How much? dragon green?

Will be in primer and not really sure yet, going to wait until it's finished (has a few scuffs that need sorting)

The wheels I put on are 6.5"s which came with 205's. I had to go down to 195's because they were rubbing on the shocks. Look much better on the 195's too

Wrong way round...
Early GTIs were 195s, later 205s.
Annis 216/40/16...

and a 205 wide tyre is perfect for a 6.5" rim.
