I fitted a set to my GTI.
Great quality plates but I swapped them for some plastic ones soon after as I feel they don't suit the modern look of the MK 7.
It's personal preference but they are not for me.

I have them mated to some surrounds. I only changed because the original had the dealer name and town running across the bottom edge.Plus it made my LUFC friends happier.
