Several tuning companies have already previewed or launched accessories for the eighth generation Volkswagen Golf, and one of them is Oettinger.
The German tuner has chosen to keep things discreet, although anyone familiar with how the popular compact hatchback looks like will spot them in a blink of an eye.
Setting the front end of the car apart from the standard models is a new apron, which not only makes it look sportier, but also reduces lift, according to Oettinger, which has tested all the parts in the wind tunnel. The side skirts are new as well, and so is the diffuser lip, which has a three-piece design, with a removable middle section that allows the mounting of a tow hook.
There’s also a roof spoiler, whereas for the 7.5×18-inch alloy wheels, you will have to turn to Volkswagen themselves, as these are from their official Accessories range.

Oettinger says that all components are of OEM quality and are delivered prime, save for the roof spoiler, which is shipped in glossy black, though they can be finished in any color to either match the car’s paintjob or contrast it.
All parts can be ordered from the official Volkswagen partners this summer and will eventually be joined by similar offerings for the upcoming GTI front-wheel drive hot hatch. The AWD Golf R is still in development, but we think that it will end up in the tuner’s catalogue too once it launches.
