Looks cleaner without exhaust.  :cool:

It does indeed, i'm considering removing the golf & gti badges also.

I'll be ordering either a mk5 or polo rear wiper & a sharan badge to further tidy up the rear end...oh and a smaller aerial :grin:

Save your dosh and delete the rear wiper!

I would say leave the badges on.

Thay look plain without them, following Richw's yesterday on the motorway got me thinking how much better they look with the badges on.

I'm still not sure:

Yup, I agree. Always had hatchbacks except for my Saab. Hated it when it was raining and your trying to reverse out of a parking space. Scene points but not worth in imo due to being so impracticle.

Do you know what size grommet is needed to fill the hole? I'm gonna put the rear wiper back on the mk3 and if the grommet is the same then i'll dewiper the mk4 :grin:
