I want a set of Mudflaps for my GTD - this is the 1st ever car I've taken delivery of without any and I'm not happy with the situation.  My dealer keeps looking on the parts list, but is sceptical whether or not VW will even produce any.  I read somewhere that VW Customer Services had said that there will be no Mk7 GTD/GTI mudflaps!

Being out in a farming area they really do help keep the mud off the roads at bay!

My next question is has anybody modified a set to fit the Mk7 and if so are there any photos of this?

1 Set Mudflaps (Left and Right) - Rear - GTI/GTD   - 5GV 075 105
1 Set Mudflaps (Left and Right) - Front- GTI/GTD   - 5GV 075 116


These part numbers are correct and do exist on their system, they are making them, just have no release date as of yet.

does the gti/gti have any additional protection on the front of the rear arches?

In that case can we petition VW to bring the release date forward - after all winter is not far away!

Are we not in winter already?  :smiley:

I had them specced on my car.  A few days before collection I got a call saying the mud flaps can only be fitted on the front and they are not compatible with the back.  I just decided to leave them.
