Definitely the best looking spoiler for these cars. Keen to get one on my 2020 R final edition. Think it was an option from factory perhaps I nearly brought one that had it from new but missed out. Haven't checked yet hope you left your link cos you sound Aussie and so am I 😊
@@chuwmumamark2848 hey mate no worries! the red tape was 3M tape that came with the spoiler. I used strips of the 3M in addition to the sikaflex adhesive to stick the spoiler to the car. The blue tape I only used to hold the spoiler in place as the sikaflex (with the 3M tape) dried and created a strong bond to the car. So that’s why I removed the blue tape the next morning.
Thanks mate! Oettinger style replica! Link in description to the one I got. No issues with it since the install! Whichever you get I think it makes the car look way better! Good luck
I purchased mine from an Aussie place as I wanted quick delivery. dubhaus.com.au/product/oettinger-style-mk7/ Alternatively Ali express has some cheaper ones (but shipping can be quite expensive) that I think could be just as good, but the estimated wait was much longer for me. Such as this one: m.aliexpress.com/item/1005003279577634.html Just make sure you get one that fits your car properly eg mk 7 vs mk 8
It's what you have to expect sadly if you buy a 'style' spoiler rather than the original part. They are normally reverse engineered so will almosts always not fit correctly
I will mount it on my golf gtd, I have different thoughts when it will arrive, when I want to mount it I am ashamed because it will look bad because it is not R but gtd. I also bought a splitter for the lower front, tomorrow I will probably get to work, I hope I will not break anything 😆, thank you for the video
@@chuwmumamark2848 mine was around £500 after being painted mate, find an official Oettinger supplier (don’t go for eBay or anywhere it says “Oettinger STYLE” only go for genuine)
Anyone installed these with just tape and it does the trick? If anyone wants to steal it I dont want to be left with adhesive markes on the paint and yes it's happened me in the past with an old car 😔
Yep I can confirm this man knows what his doing he put that proper sealer on there great tutorial
Whats the sealer called
Awesome video thank you! Glad i have a black R so i dont have to worry about the different coloured line so much 🤣
I got a white but so much black on it including moonroof black so I'm happy to go black keep the two tone going lol 😂

Great video bro. U know u sound exactly like Norton from big lez 😂
😂😂
Also you can piss off all the adhesive tape and replace it all over with gorilla extra strength tape
I just put my spoiler on and want to seal it with some tec 7, do u know if the sealent will damage the car paint when removing it?
fantastic video mate! was this an original oettinger or a oettinger style. gonna do this very soon. thanks

Is yours onyx white? Mine is looks awesome
How do you place it down? I'm worried I place it wrong and I cant relift
Such a beautiful car!
Are you planning to replace the front and rear badges with the black ones?
Thanks! Yep I’ve blacked out front and back. Looks much better
Good video thanks
please can you put the link of the things you used in the description

Tried shipping it to my house but i guess they don’t do over seas
How’s the car been?
who cares if its real, it look great
What glue is best to use ?
Did you use the small tape they supply and mastic?
Yeh I used both - had no issues with it at all so far!
What diffuser is that?
Can you take the spoiler back off if you wanted to sell the car, for example?
I think it would be difficult but you probably could with some effort
Which Sikaflex did you use?
From memory it was this or similar: www.bunnings.com.au/sika-290ml-sikaflex-118-extreme-grab-construction-adhesive_p0131775
@@adamcohen9 thanks legend
Bit over the top with the tape
What’s the best way to take one of these off mate? Mines damaged so I need to replace it
Not sure mate never looked in to it - depends what you used to stick it on as well
You needed abit more blue tape to hold it down
Yeh few more rolls of it should have done the job
where did you get the spoiler, i’ve bought my second oettinger style spoiler and it doesn’t fit 🤔.

I got mine from this company.

Do you know how thick the 3m tape you used was?
Not sure, it was actually supplied with the spoiler when I got it. But it was pretty thin
I will mount it on my golf gtd, I have different thoughts when it will arrive, when I want to mount it I am ashamed because it will look bad because it is not R but gtd. I also bought a splitter for the lower front, tomorrow I will probably get to work, I hope I will not break anything 😆, thank you for the video
Can you tell me the name of the glue that you used?
Sikaflex adhesive
7:15 gap is because you bought fake Oettinger - the real thing fits perfect
Yeh interesting - I think it’s generally unnoticeable so worth the savings, but definitely something to consider!
@@adamcohen9 don’t get me wrong, the real one costs an insane amount - so can’t disagree with you there
@@anony-mousex how much does the real one cost. I'm seeing £190 on the net. I've got a golf r 2019 and i would love one off this spoiler

Exactly, I sent fake one back , absolute junk. Only way is get the proper One but there not cheap! 😁

What adhesive did you use besides the 3m tape?
Sikaflex adhesive
Is that spoiler still attached to the car?
Yeh mate hasn’t budged
Hi!
Do you use an automatic car wash?
Rarely, but if I do I use touch free auto car washes
Che flessibile hai usato
Is this from zerooffset?
From dubhaus.

What sealent did u use?
Sikaflex adhesive
No bolts? Wow
No bolts! It’s holding up well, no issues whatsoever
Has it flew off ?lol
Haha nah mate still holding strong!
@@adamcohen9 i want to use it on my wife's golf but she didnt know that :D anyways wish me good luck :D
@@matroksu haha good luck mate
Does it matter what tape you use to hold it down?
Not really, just make sure it’s got a very strong grip so the spoiler doesn’t fly off!!
