What Accessories are you buying for your MK6 Golf?

[changas]

damn. has anyone else ordered from Osir and is still awaiting their footrest? it's still "on order" and i was wondering if anyone else had heard anything back from them (as i have not).

nat255, the gruppe-m intake is a beautiful piece of kit, i have on of those installed on the evo, fits like a glove and the workmanship is brilliant!

Did you happen to take photos of both setups so we know what you're talking about? If you do, posting them would be great. Cheers

Corey_R Yes I have both before and after pics that I'd love to share, but sadly I'm still confused as to 'how to'?

You need to use a Picture Sharing site, such as Photobucket. Register with one of those sites, then upload the photos you wish to share. Once you've uploaded them, they'll usually provide a series of "link options", including one for forums which contains [ IMG ] [/ IMG ] tags (without the spaces). You just click on that, it copies to the clipboard, and then you simply past into a post here. (at least that's how Photobucket works!)

Thanks to Corey_R for the photo uploading instructions, so here goes....

Below are my pictures of the 'before and after' Roof Rack saga for my Golf mk6 R



The after racks were supplied and fitted by Roof Carrier Systems in Camberwell, Melbourne. The set of Prorack with Whisbar technology, was $355 fitted including the Golf mk6 kit.

Simply briliant, now I can open my Sunroof without the annoying wind vibration. They are truly whisper quiet and Roof Carrier Systems even offered to trade-in my freebie VW racks for $90.
I'm thrilled, off to catch a wave!

lol - that first picture just looks wrong.

The 'after' shot is a big improvement (not that I personally would put roof racks on a sports car, but that's just me)

I hear you about the Roof Racks on a sports car.... but I love surfing possibly as much as I love my Golf R...So its a compromise.
Besides I can't fit my boards in my wife's convertible!

[Ryan_R]

Just make sure you take your camera as well so the rest of us can see the car posing at the beach

Thanks mate. Those 2nd pair look like the Thule Aero bars. One of the great things about Thule is that their racks are modular, so when you change cars, unless it's incredible different style/sizes, you often only need to replace parts (such as the feet) and not the entire racks!

Just ordered a set of Thule Aero Bars for my car... along with a Rhino snowboard rack...

gotta stop spending before the car arrives!!

They don't look too bad. Thanks for posting the pictures mate was wondering what the car would look like with roof racks on. Very tempting, I just worry that they may mark.

I ended up being boring and just getting the Bluetooth, MDI, hard boot liner and weather shields though the 18" Vancouver's that are on it are nicer then I thought that they would be.

Just fitted my Gloss Black VW emblem..

[MIRSAD]

That is looking nice!

I also have the Whispbar racks, though I got mine for 275 with the feet (Trade helps!!!) The rear looks a bit too far back according to the instructions. Can you check the distance between the inside of the 2 closest brackets (ie: inside edge of the rear plastic wing support on the front leg to the inside front of the rear wing support)
