They're plain wrong on a GTI (or any non-agricultural vehicle) IMO. Questionable benefit too, not to mention having to drill holes to attach them.

What next, a tow-bar for the cattle trailer or a set of bull bars?  :grin:

I think at least one or two "discrete" holes need drilling, at least that was the case in the mk5/6.

Yeah it's like buying a cool bicycle and slapping a set of panniers on the back - ruins the look! :grin:
