VR6 Front Dam
« on: 15 December 2010, 19:38 »
Ok, before the torrents of abuse start, I have used the Search function but not quite getting what I'm after. I'm wanting a VR6 front air dam but there seem to be a lot out there. Eurowagens seem to crop up a fair bit. Anybody running one of theirs and is it ok?

S.M.

I'm running a Eurowagens one, got no complaints at all! It's taken a battering and is still in one piece plus it has loads of flex in it unlike some of the eBay jobbies. I'd definately buy one again, the only downside is a small gap where the 2 sides join....i'll try and dig out a pic!  :smiley:

The gap is meant to be there and was there on a genuine one I had too.

Eurowagen's splitter is probably the best one, although I have broken mine quite badly :D None of them are indestructable lol.

I just cable tie the splits and cracks together :D

went to wash the car this morning and found some tw@ts have nicked the VR6 splitter from my GTi, well annoying  :angry:
not even as if i've ripped it off on a kerb or a speed bump or something, the screw holes are complete! Eurowagons still the best bet?

lol that would be another issue mate but if you not got much money like myself then the cheaper one is going to appeal more
