VW roofbars on their MK5 GTI

The thought of a beautiful Mk5 with roofbars makes me sad 

Gnarly dude.

Ive seen someone with a tow bar on their mk 5 GTi!!!!, they should be shot by firing squad.

Gee lucky I didn't start a thread called "Anybody got a towbar on their GTI?"

Let us know how you get on Gulfstream, with pics if possible

Not the best picture i know but gives you a rough idea.



I actually think it looks pretty cool. Havent got one with my downhill bike on but this was it on my mates car.

what type of bars are your theBatch?

[topher]

hmm.. wonder if you can get them in carbon fibre

Mine (and my mates) are OEM VW, as well as the bike rack.

I looked at aftermarket ones but decided on VeeDub as it just looked, well, better quality.

I had a look in  the VW website but I can't seem to access the accessories pages since they updated it - if you don't mind me asking what does a set of bars retail at?  And are they easy to fit and lock etc etc

theBatch....Is your GTI a 3 or 5 door...  I was very happy with the MKIV bars
