I believe you are correct Corey. Just spent 3 Hrs on choosing plates for my new TSI and the combinations are endless. Decided against the Euro plates cause I think there too long on the front. Instead went for the slimline black on white for the front and the standard size black on white for the rear. (the car is white BTW)
Here's what I've ordered for $415
The Euro plates would have been $595 and the prestige $2295 - I can get my wheels for that!!

Brian said he got "slimline black on white for the front and the standard size black on white for the rear." so he has it the right way
Yeah, $2295 for prestige seems expensive but you should see the choices! We're not just talking background colours, we're talking full graphic options

Is this large black plate holder specific to the GTI?
I just drove past an MKVI (not GTI) and it had the black euro slimline without any large plate holder (couldn't tell if it had any holder at all).

I think the normal plate would look better on the back rather than the slimline. The plate area at the back could handle any size but the front needs the slimline. The Euro plates would not give me the option of the numbers I wanted and were $595 vs $415. The difference will pay for the window tint LOL

Do you know the size of the holder? I'm thinking of ordering a set of black vic euro plates for my R. NFI what letter/number combo though
They come in 2 sizes:
Standard 520mm wide x 112mm high
Mini 372mm wide x 100mm high
Was thinking mini at the front and std at the rear. But depends on what is the best match for the surround.
