Description
The VW Golf R Side Skirts are a direct bolt-on styling upgrade designed for the Volkswagen Golf R Mk8 (2020-2024). Supplied as a pair (left and right side), these gloss black side skirt extensions run along the factory sills, visually lowering the Golf R and sharpening its side profile to match the aggressive front and rear R styling.
