Sideskirt End Caps.

[CraigW]

Im needing to get the end caps for the gti sideskirts as I have finally aquired a set of them.

Firstly Im guessing I will need 2 left and 2 right for the sideskirts?

Secondly, you are able to get them in a satin black aswell, which ones will I need for these side-skirts??

no you won't mate, one side of the sideskirts is moulded into an end cap, but the other end you will need
the already moulded part always goes on the front side of the car, but the end cap goes on the back side and is a pop-rivot mate

and

you will need all these jacking point covers (these are with satin-black codes)

• left-front: 6K5853455 B41
• left-back: 6K5853455A B41
• right-front: 6K5853456 B41
• right-back: 6K5853456A B41

and for end caps:

• Left Endcap: 6K5853657 B41
• Right Endcap: 6K5853658 B41

(remember left means passenger side to them lol
and the " B41" code is for satin black, so take it away if not)

Cheers for the quick reply, so I just need one left and one right end cap? And the end cap you rivet to the car goes at the back wheels??

I will add a screw to the moulded end cap at the front to help keep it in place aswell.

I cant make up my mind if the skirts in the link are satin black or not.

IMO they are too shiney for satin black.

yep thats correct mate, just one on each side!

i looked at the link, i personally think they were sprayed black mate, don't you think?
but i don't know what the satin black look like lmao
ask the seller?

I dont actually think they have been sprayed, I think they are just the standard colour. Think its just the light that makes them look like they have been sprayed.

werent all the mk2 ones standard black and mk3 primed?

I think its the light in the pic, looks like he has just sprayed them with s**t loads of back to black lol. Gonna have to get yourself some jacking point covers/caps

Thats what I thought, but on Vagcat it lists the end caps/jacking point covers in black and theres a satin black option.

Im going to wait until I get the skirts before I order jacking point covers, I think theres 2 with the skirts. And when I get them Im going to secure them to the skirts somehow so I dont lose them.

oh i thought you already had the skirts, just wait til they come so you can examine them, if they do look satin then get the satin, i thought there was only a single colour, maybe it was an option for the cordoba? (as they share the same sideskirts)
