Depends on the color of your car. They protect, sure, but they do not "ozonate the air" as as couple of very famous Russian writers put it. Meaning - they do not make the car look better, do they?

The car is steel grey, so they shouldn't look too out of place.  I might ask the dealer if I can hold them against the bumper to see how they look before fitting them!

Hmmm.. plastic grey mudflaps stuck onto the colour coded valance on the edition 30? That doesn't sound right..

Thats like saying 'plastic grey valance stuck onto the colour coded rear bumper on the GTI'

I dont think colour coding the mudflaps is a feasible option - thats for sure!

Ok, I've finally got the handle on the lid for the front console in the GTI/Ed30.  If you order the car with smoking pack and/or front centre armrest you will get a lid on the front storage area. If you don't have the front centre armrest and/or smoking pack you won't get the lid.  Mine came with a lid and I just have the armrest. Hopefully that clears things up a bit.  :wink:
