I have R32 exhaust/bumper conversion too.. However it was already on the car when I bought it! No idea if taken off an R32 or aftermarket like yours. Great video!
Good work. Just what i wanted to see. Waiting to do mine but not the R32 one. I'm going for the one without exhaust hole as my Golf is only the 1.6 FSI. The bumper skirt, even when unpainted and without reflectors, is still quite expensive.
Hi, thanks for doing the video. I had a problem with my GTI Edition 30 - the bumper had come apart slightly underneath the number plate and I had to take the whole thing off to sort it. Like you said the easiest way was to get it off and it took only 10 seconds to clip the clips back together. The hardest thing getting it off was the clip screw holding the bumper to the back wing that you talked about. One of mine was rusted and took ages and a load of WD40 to get it off but I eventually did it. Your video helped though so thanks!
No worries at all, thanks for watching. Yeah I couldn't clip it on with the bumper on and those back wing screws are a nightmare. Happy you got it sorted 👌🏼. Ed30 is a machine 💪🏼.
Hi mine is 1.4 TSI andyou dont see exhaust at all.. it's hidden behind bumper.. now is it possible to make transformation like you did on yours?? thanks
Nice vid mate. Swapped my bumper to Ed30 today and those T20 screws are pain in the arse. Ending up jacking up the car to have more clearance to unscrew. Makes it quite a bit easier.
Wasalam, I picked that up on eBay - it's a Milltek R32 Style non-res cat back. The milltek system is expensive, I picked mine up on sale, and it also hangs a bit so I recommend going custom. Here's a video where the owner gets a custom exhaust R32 style fitted: th-cam.com/video/S4hKv9dMKWY/w-d-xo.html Think it cost him around £200 if I remember correctly. Hope that helps 👊🏼
Speaking of mud. Check and clean where the sill meets the wheel arch under front and rear wheel arche liners. Mine were caked in mud on all sides. Horrible little rust traps
Exact same colour as my car and exactly what I'm planning on doing. Do you remember the seller for the bumper? colour match looks pretty good in the video. I've found Lothianspares or something similar but they're out of stock for the next 6-8 weeks
I got mine from Lothian. Fitment and quality is very good however colour match isn't perfect - it's not bad but if you look closely you can tell - I was happy enough. Graphite Blue is a lovely colour - good luck with it!
i want to put a center exit exhaust on my mk5 gti but i dont want a resonator or a muffler can someone suggest a good brand that has an R32 exhaust thats like that
Hey man, where did you get the bottom half of bumper? Been looking for ages! Can't find one painted! I have a gt tdi the same colour, im sure its called graphite blue but my paint code isn't there so if you know the paint code let me know! Thanks!!
Yeah Graphite Blue, lovely colour 👌🏼. Paint code is LC5F. This is where I bought mine from: www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VW-Golf-MK5-2004-2008-Rear-R32-Style-Lower-Bumper-Painted-LC5F-Graphite-Blue-/133547473037?_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l49292 Good luck with it 👊🏼
Is there any way to install a r32 or even a GTI rear lower bumper (that’s body coloured painted) on a Mk5 golf TDI match without having to change the exhaust system or have empty exhaust cutouts where the exhausts would be if I upgraded them to where the r32’s are
Yeah should be possible, the part of the colour coded bumper with exhaust inserts itself is removable - so would need an r32 or ed30 colour coded bumper and then get a blanking part to replace the cut-outs.
I bought mine from eBay. Can be cheaper getting it from an R32 that's getting broken and will be genuine. Ebay quality wasn't too bad. Bought mine from Lothian Car Parts and would recommend.
I know many people do this to their GTI, but in my opinion it just doesn't fit. If you see this rear you expect a nice VR6 sound. I will never understand why people would put this on a GTI. I personally would always go for the GTI Edition 30 bumper.

I love it that all you guys get together on the street and got the work done like old school style
What a ball ache of a job getting that bumper off!!! But well worth it, as the R32 bumper/diffuser looks way better. 👍 Keep em coming
Cheers will do 👊
sick video man,keep uploading more often
Jeez. Monster of a job and I wanted to change mine by myself, no chance lol.
Once again grt vid
Thanks. Yeah turned out more than expected worst thing on these cars are the rusted screws.

Awesome conversion!!...good video.
Thanks 👌🏼. Appreciate it 🙏🏼

great job! personally I prefer the stock look on my GTI, but I am going to get the black plastic bumper painted/replaced to match the rest of the car.
Cheers! Mk5 GTI Ed30s have colour coded bumpers anyway- can be cheaper buying one from someone breaking one. Good luck!
Nice vid mate. Swapped my bumper to Ed30 today and those T20 screws are pain in the arse. Ending up jacking up the car to have more clearance to unscrew. Makes it quite a bit easier.
Cheers, they honestly are. Ed30 bumper 🔥 - massive improvement over the standard one 👌🏼
I want to buy a r32 exhaust for my gti too. Do you know if I can install r32 stock exhaust?

Same process for a tdi?
hey, où as-tu trouvé l'échappement ?
Nice
Speaking of mud. Check and clean where the sill meets the wheel arch under front and rear wheel arche liners. Mine were caked in mud on all sides. Horrible little rust traps
Especially the front arches
Thanks a lot I'll have a look!
Who was that good looking fellow helpin ya out
How did you get a R32 bumper the same Color as your mk5 gti
Bought it pre-painted - can find them on eBay
Exact same colour as my car and exactly what I'm planning on doing. Do you remember the seller for the bumper? colour match looks pretty good in the video. I've found Lothianspares or something similar but they're out of stock for the next 6-8 weeks
I got mine from Lothian. Fitment and quality is very good however colour match isn't perfect - it's not bad but if you look closely you can tell - I was happy enough. Graphite Blue is a lovely colour - good luck with it!
@@HimiJ ah right, hoping it's still a decent match as I'm planning on buying a replacement wing from them already painted haha
Replacement wing should be good - normally taken off another car.
Is it just an r32 back bumper, would i be able to get it off a wrecked r32 and it would fit perfectly onto my 05 mk5 gti ?
I'm pretty sure that would work not 100% sure though
Where did you get the rear bump from with the colour matching yours
Ebay
i want to put a center exit exhaust on my mk5 gti but i dont want a resonator or a muffler can someone suggest a good brand that has an R32 exhaust thats like that
Powervalve(bcs) do a full system but it is expensive. Custom made is another option.
Where did you get the painted bumper from
Ebay
Hello bro. I want to ask you how much mm is the ending of exhaust at pumper. Thank you
Exhuast tips are 100mm in diameter
Hey man, where did you get the bottom half of bumper? Been looking for ages! Can't find one painted! I have a gt tdi the same colour, im sure its called graphite blue but my paint code isn't there so if you know the paint code let me know! Thanks!!
Yeah Graphite Blue, lovely colour 👌🏼.

@@HimiJ Thank you very much, I really appreciate it man! 🤙
hi bro! could you send me the link where you bought your rear bumper cheers!!
Bought on Ebay from this seller .

www.maxtondesign.co.uk/vw-golf/vw-golf-mk5/rear-valance-vw-golf-v-gti-edition-30-without-exhaust-hole-for-standard-exhaust
Something like this
Thank you. That rear valance would work, but do you know where to find a rear colour coded bumper whereby that section of it is removable?
Not too sure, I'd say contact Maxton design they should be able to help.
Unless Ofc just that item you attached in the comment forms the rear bumper?
where do you find an r32 bumper?
eBay
Was really struggling to do this to my peugoet 208 gti
😂😂
Change the number plate lights to led units, there error free plug and play much better.
Good idea!
Were did you bought the exhaust
eBay
What exhaust is that on your GTI @Himi ? thanks!
Milltek R32 Style 2.75 Non-Res for the GTI
I'd recommend getting a custom made back box that is R32 style - should be cheaper
Where can I get this for mk5 golf fsi
Bumper - eBay, exhaust - best to get one custom made at an exhaust shop. Hope that helps!
Did you not need the heatsheild for the bumper by the exhaust? Worried mine is going to melt otherwise
No it's completely fine, been running it for 4 years now. That part of the exhaust doesn't really get too hot and sits off the plastic
@@HimiJ nice. Just wanted to double check as I bought a new bumper with no sheild and didn't want it to melt
Where can I find a gloss black one
Not sure, I had mine wrapped. Maxton Designs might have something
is it me because i can still see there is a gap between them ? not sitting flush ?
I think that's just how the R32 valence fits even on factory R32s
Where did you get the rear bumper from?
eBay, seller is called Lothian car parts
Still got the GTI? Looking at doing this to mine :)
Yeah still got it Matt, daily driving it !
@@HimiJ good stuff. Did the cam follower on mine last night and mine has the banjo fitting 😅
Where did you get the bumper from?
eBay, seller called Lothian car parts
Where you bought ur bumper ?
eBay
Where did you buy the bumper?
ebay - Lothian car parts
I wouldn't want replica r32 but an original gti
Personal preference I guess. You can get the ED30 valence which keeps the GTI look!
You still got this golf?
Yes
is this an ebay part or genuine? im looking to do the same
I bought mine from eBay. Can be cheaper getting it from an R32 that's getting broken and will be genuine. Ebay quality wasn't too bad. Bought mine from Lothian Car Parts and would recommend.
@@HimiJ hows the fitment and how much did resprayign it set u back?
Fitment is good once fitted and seller sold it pre-sprayed
I know many people do this to their GTI, but in my opinion it just doesn't fit.
If you see this rear you expect a nice VR6 sound. I will never understand why people would put this on a GTI. I personally would always go for the GTI Edition 30 bumper.
Personal preference I guess. I recently got a Milltek catback from someone breaking their car so potentially might go down the Ed30 route 🤔
Sometimes it's not about the sound of the car it's all about the the look of the car my guy
Of lan gti
