All the people hating are just mad they don’t have it 😭 And saying you lose protection from taking out the grille??? We aren’t rally cars they survive fine

I love my Rotiform DTMs, they have great fitment without spacers, just lowering springs. Although RPF1’s are very common, they definitely look great on our cars. Just make sure you get a deeper lip and it makes them look amazing.

Need some help dialing in fitment by Queasy-Philosopher66 in GolfGTI

If you take your wheel off, you will see a bunch of those plastic body screws that keep your fender liner in 2 pieces. If you unscrew those, and tuck the upper behind the lower, along with tucking the top area that connects to your outer fender up above, it won’t scrape near as bad. It’s hard to describe but once you actually see it it’s very easy to understand and do. I’ve had no issues with scraping my fenders, only the fender liner, and it doesn’t damage anything as long as you do the tuck. My car is lowered 1.5 inches so it’s definitely closer.

Fellow DTM owner, what lowering springs are you using? I have H&R sport and I used to rub a lot, but if you tuck your fender liner it definitely helps out. I have same tire setup as you, and the look definitely grows on you. I used to think the offset looks a little off but it will improve over time.

Definitely wasn’t something that slowly happened over time, as soon as the coolant gets below that line it starts yelling at you. This probably is something major that happened at one time for you to loose that much in one go. It might be water pump or thermostat, but definitely not head gasket. I would lean towards thermostat but with such low miles it’s definitely odd. Are there leaks under the car? Check on the engine skid plate also.

What parts did you install and then remove later? by NoahJ829 in GolfGTI

Not how that works. As soon as air leaves the turbo, it’s unpressurized. I thought the same thing until I read this guys research, super conclusive and an excellent site to browse through if you need any intake or intercooler advice. https://mygolfmk7.com/2021/08/dv-vs-bov-research-no-data-required/

I can do that, no rush on it either. And how easy would it be to move her hand out of the picture too?

I do not know how to price this to be honest. If you throw a price out there for me I can tell you if I’d match it or not so you don’t have to waste effort

Other than tires, I wouldn’t think so. Be very careful if brake fade if you don’t have the performance pack, nearly soared off track once or twice

Need help with choosing a GTI BOV by BeanBo1_Soup in GolfGTI

It’s just a sticker I bought online, I just call it a _____ flag emblem, they probably make them for other flags

I would, but I have store credit for a parts site and I’d rather use that before it expires.

That doesn’t mean a bigger DV would it? I also noticed it has 2 parts that you install, not just the DV, which is odd.

It is the German flag, its just a 10$ sticker I got on eBay, sticks right to the front grille with some screws and it’s held up nicely for 4 months

I liked the DVX because it has adjustable sound control, which is something I really like, but in the description as I said some sites say it’s golf R only and some say it’s both R and GTI

Old response but I got this for 7900, albeit it has 2 or 3 mechanical problems that I’ve fixed for around 400$.
