  • Cupra R Front Lip on MKV R32

    Yo,

    Was just wanting to check on here if anyone on this forum has attempted or managed to put on a cupra front lip on their mkV R32? Something i have wanted to do for ages and I have seen that Dubaddiction has these in stock for a fairly good price. IF anyone has some tips and help would be appreciated.

    Cheers

    There are a few boys that have done it in the US. Not aware of anyone running one in Australia yet. Im not sure if I like it or not though.

    Heres a quick link of how one guy went about it
    VWVortex.com - DIY: MkV R32 Cupra Lip

    And heres another example. If you search google images for MK5 R32 with cupra lip it gets a few hits

          The lip or the car? or both?

          The lips certainly do the right things to the looks, any more and it would be silly.

          I'd be scared leaving carbon fibre shrapnel all over sydney car parks

            Yea i think the lip looks great, adds that touch of aggressiveness i think the front needs.
