@@Vaguh just finished up the front splitter. instructions were great. just popped in to get a visual before i go out and do this rear install.! cheers.
@@Vaguh i was really looking forward to this.. and.. well its done. i dont love it. although ive never been a diffuser/splitter kinda guy.. also. i punched through the bumper on one of the holes with the bit. lol so.. not super excited about that.
Good video. Just ordered mine. I hope its not a long wait for it to come. Do you mind sharing the link of where to get those mud guards for the 2 rear wheels please? I looked for them in their website but could not find them. Thanks.
@@ronsav2067 its not that noticeable. Aerofabb made it to have that little gap. It's what the diffuser looks like. I had second thoughts too when I install it. but it looks clean trust me.
@@kelvinphan8584 I can't imagine it's a necessity to have the gap. I saw someone else install it flush. Do the instructions say why there's a gap or if it's necessary? I have one ordered and wonder if there's a reason it has to be there. I'm actually getting it because I don't like the stock fake vent look...
@@RJYOUNG396 The way the metal is shaped leads to the gap. Their website images show the gap so its 100% meant to be this way. I do think with a little finessing you could get it flush to the stock piece
There’s not many, but I think ECS tuning sells a complete replacement for the lowered diffuser on the GTI in golf are. I’m not sure who else sells a complete replacement that snaps into place of the stock one.
@@Vaguh Cool, thanks for the info. Just wanted to make sure a 4" tip would fit with the diffuser. I can't wait for this mod because the only thing I don't like on the GTI is the fake vent look of the stock rear end. 👍👍
It probably took us longer than most people would because of filming and goofing around. I would guess this could be an easy two hour install, and maybe less if you have a secondhand.
Looks nice, but i wish since this is a product made for a Euro car, that they had used metric hardware. All of my good/nice tools are metric, with just a basic selection of SAE stuff buried somewhere in my toolbox
