MarkGolf 6 Posted August 23, 2004 Report Share Posted August 23, 2004 I've seen many variations, some with coloured VW symbols, some with coloured letters e.t.cDid different age cars come with different covers?Do highlines have different ones?If anyone, mainly you Schrek owners have any of these covers laying about, I'd be interested in purchsing one or two..Many thanksTalking about these, painted my one black..Would like a completely standard one and one that has been factory coloured (font)[ Edited ] Link to post Share on other sites
binliner 0 Posted August 23, 2004 Report Share Posted August 23, 2004 some say DOHC, some say 2.8... I always thought the ones with coloured letters had been customised?mine is a 2.8 version and you cant have it! Link to post Share on other sites
MarkGolf 6 Posted August 23, 2004 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2004 No, I saw a thread on one of the U.S forums agesss ago and some came painted out of the factory..The letters done in red and VW symbol in light blue..Did they ever do a 2.9 DOHC one?? Thats what I'd ideally want!Want to paint one satin silver while i get bits of my car done and I want one with colour letters.. Link to post Share on other sites
