Don't think you are going to get any mudflaps though, because as far as I'm aware, they don't exist yet for the GTI / GTD due to the side skirts.

Correct, you cannot have mudflaps.

They're probably going to try and fit the standard ones and realise their mistake during the fitting process. I'd skip them TBH - dirt traps, quite often a breeding ground for rust with abrasive muck and moisture getting in behind them .

Personally, a bit like mud-flaps, I think the parking sensors somewhat defeat their purpose - especially on a white car - the sensors look so obvious and somewhat unsightly, especially those park assist ones. Same goes for that ADC sensor!

I wouldn't say they defeat their purpose - they do what they're supposed to without detriment to the car's operation. You might think that your car looks like it has 8 (or 10 with park assist) nipples. They aren't that stand-outish, but the ADC sensor is.

I thought that the first time I bought a car with sensors but within days you don't even notice them any more.

Maybe, if the Germans have access to them already. Shouldn't be an issue for RHD/LHD affecting mudflaps - might have to scour ebay.de or similar to find them. Maybe check out Volkswagen.de via google chrome to get a translation and look up accessories.
