I had the wing bars on my polo which where super quiet. But I have a thule velo for the rear makes me feel more at ease. Yea altitude 770msl 2016. only reason I didn't get the top was I don't like the red and I changed a lot of bits any way.

Had the car serviced for the second time (30K) yesterday. Only had 18.5k on the clock, so time based. Since moving inner city, we are doing way less k's. Still love the car, everything runs perfect with it, great economy and it still looks brand new
Will have to get it serviced earlier next year and get an "end of warranty" check done, but so far, had 0 issues so being a manual i'm not expecting any to suddenly appear.

Anyone vinyl wrapped the centre lower bar of their RS? Wouldn't mind getting this done or attempting myself if I can source a strip of good quality wrap. Anyone have any tips or places they can recommend in Melb metro?

Also, anyone installed spacers for a bit more track to fill out the guards? I think it looks great but concerned whether there are any negative consequences to handling or tyre wear. This guy used 15mm front and 22mm rear I believe.

I was discussing this with HPRS230 the other day!

I would be keen to investigate further - also like the idea of doing my lower lip black
