Tuners Trick Out The New Mk8 VW Golf

The Mk8 VW Golf is still very new but two tuning companies have collaborated to create a custom styling kit for the hatchback.

The kit in question comes from Ingo Noak Tuning and Autohaus Gerken, and adds some aggression to the Golf by giving it a sporty new look that’s complemented by a lowered suspension.

Located up front are two available splitters. They look virtually identical and are priced at €159 ($179) and €179 ($202) respectively, with the only noticeable difference being subtle flics on the trailing edge of the more expensive splitter. Spin around to the sides and there are also two side skirt options, both priced at €169 ($190) with one including an add-on towards the rear wheel.

Out back, the there’s a rear apron priced at €79 ($89) and two rear diffuser designs, priced at €179 ($202) and €258 ($291) respectively.

From what we can tell, these add-ons have only been designed for the standard Golf and likely won’t fit the new Golf GTI or the forthcoming Golf R.

While the world had been waiting for a long time for the Mk8 VW Golf to launch, not everything has gone smoothly for the German car manufacturer. In May, VW was forced to pause Golf deliveries due to a software issue related to the vehicle’s ability to contact emergency services in the event of an accident. In the same month, VW pulled an ad for the new Golf after it was decried as racist.
