vr6highline28 0 Posted August 3, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 3, 2005 yes it's definitely a highline as it's on the V5 as one and i bought it from vw !! im just wondering if the rear tail fin should match the black pearlescent paint or whether (as on mine) its dull grey .... the rear windscreen looks original so am wondering if its had a replacement tailfin but one from a standard VR6 not a highline .... any ideas ?? cheers.

binliner 0 Posted August 3, 2005 Report Share Posted August 3, 2005 sounds like the spoiler or maybe tailgate has been replaced at some point Link to post Share on other sites
purple highline monster 0 Posted August 3, 2005 Report Share Posted August 3, 2005 someone probably knicked the original highline one as they are slightly different to other vr6 ones, and as you say it should be body coloured too! Link to post Share on other sites
vr6highline28 0 Posted August 3, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 3, 2005 yep i agree i'll visit vw to get an original one if they still have them in stock !!! i suspected one had been nicked since the glass is vw original patented but the finish on the spoiler is a wee bit pants !!! hope its a pretty easy job to replace ???? any ideas ? cheers - wanna get it sorted for E38 !!!

purple highline monster 0 Posted August 4, 2005 Report Share Posted August 4, 2005 it should just bolt through the glass some have bonding on too, if you get a new one it will only come in primer! you need to get it painted, not sure what price they are from vw but i expect its silly money? you may be better to wait till e38 to see if someones got one for sale in your colour? if they are expensive?
