if you are fitting to a mk3 it will need modding/cutting as the bumper is lower and only the cupra had the cutout

probably need new hanger's and at least an adapter as the bore size will be different btu nothing that couldn't be modified with work and inspiration

:) what i wanna know is what that car's lowered with as i haven't seen one scrape gravel like that without airbags

I dont mind doing a little cutting out as long as its only the bottom splitter.
dont really wanna cut above that.

I dont know the guy personally its a friend of a friends car.

but my friend has a mk3 golf just as low i think it involves hammering the inner arches and very very stiff coilovers to the point were it breaks your back if you run over a pebble :)

i had a similar exhaust on my 1.4 and it just rested on the bottom splitter without melting it. i think the bumpers are about same size as mk3.
