Mud flaps look gash. Don't do it!

Ah, another mud flap hater  :wink:  though I must confess they are actually beginning to grow on me, BUT, only on white, red or silver cars.

I am taking delivery of a new Golf GTi next week - DSG , 5 door , Carbon Grey Metallic , winter pack, high beam assist and rear side airbags. Does anyone know the VW part number for the front and rear mud flaps as my dealer tells me that VW does not make  specific GTi flaps and that I must make do with a set from 'Halfords'

Just been having a nosey and the link says that they don't fit the GTD, I thought the extra cut outs for the skirts were the same for the GTD or is that not the case?

The fronts would be exactly the same but the GTI has a different rear bumper than the GTD - the GTI lower valence is bigger.

I'm 99% sure the GTD needs GTI front flaps and regular Golf rears (due to rear diffuser on GTD resembling that of lower Golfs). Someone else may confirm.

That was my understanding as well.

GTI & GTD use the same front flaps.

GTI has a specific shaped cut out in the rear flaps to fit round the diffuser.

GTD can use the 'normal' rear flaps that the non-GTIs use.
