Re: why why why is my passat so greedy :(

Re: Adam's 20v Homemade jap spec refit
The cars looking sweet matey, what bit did you use to make the centre bit for the jap spec? ive been contemplating the mod for a while, and now have a us numberplate and wfsu holder so now is the time. is it the centre section of a saloon rear strip cut to fit?
Cheers
