    Caractere have always been a bit far out when it comes to bodykits.
    It has been pointed out that this one is Iroc Concept inspired, even though the Iroc was the concept for the scirocco and should probably not be applied to a golf body.
    It won't be the last of their body mods though so a more subtle one should find its way into the market soon.

    Too bad they cost an arm, a leg and your first born child.

    Most body kits are crap and make the car look tacky like you're trying too hard. Good thing that GTI/R32 already look good, but agree that the MK6 GTI could use some better side skirts.

    Yuck! Would much rather spend the money on a decent set of wheels and coils than on some tacky bodykit and paint.

    Slammed MK6 with decent wheels will look 10000x better than one with any kit IMO!

    reminds me of a whale shark combing through the ocean for food with it's mouth open.

    90% of these euro tuners come up with over the top rubbish.

    There is a reason some people in my proffesion get into teh automotive companies as designers, some of us get into OE suppliers and aftermarket. Others get into body kit styling and......well, you can see for yourself......

    Talking fugly is as...
