Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

  • Help deciding on which wing - Mk7R...

    Hi Lads.

    I am looking to add a Gloss Black wing to my Mk7R. I am having trouble pulling the trigger on one over the other.

    At different angles, they all have their +/- on looks. The list is:

    - Oettinger Gloss Black
    - OSIR Gloss Black
    - Maxton Lip Gloss Black.

    What's your thoughts on the best looking wing out of those 3?

    Appreciate your feedback!

        I have the Oettinger wing on my newly acquired Mk7 GTI PP and it looks good. Was fitted by previous owner. Pics below (not great pics but its all ive got at the moment sorry).

        No idea whether its genuine Oettinger or a copy like this Oettinger Style Wing for MK7/MK7.5 GTI & R - dubhaus. but wouldnt be at all surprised if its a copy. Either way it fits well and looks good IMO.

        The Maxton is probably a bit too subtle for me IMO.

          Looks great mate! That's the one I'm leaning towards.

              Not a fan at all of that winged/two section look.

              Best wing by far was off the CS/ED40, long before I had one - but then again my tastes are fairly conservative i.e. no Civic R ever here.

              So I guess by default I'd lean more towards the extension look of the Maxton, but I get why if you're spending cash on a piece you'd like it to stand out some.

                    This is my little piece of plastic. I was chasing the subtle look. I do like the Oettinger wing with the extensions.

                        Looks nice and subtle. Is this the TCR one?
