ok i was looking at kragen the other day at the spray on bedliner stuff , but i also saw this spatter paint .. that has a texture to it . cheaper too , just wondered if i should even attempt the other stuff or just use the bedliner ..since it has been done , if anyone has done this can you post a close up pic or pics of the (ghetto bumpers ) i want to see the texture to match the side moldings ,, should i match them with the bumpers too and just spray those too???

yup, those are called the Euro VR6 fender flares
on top of that, the red cabbie you showed has the euro textured top bumpers front and back and the textured side/door mouldings
here's another example ;)

If you hurry there is a guy selling flares for like a bill on vortex not a bad price. you can get the italian ones but they don't look as good as the euro ones. I got mine and then ended up replacing them with the euro ones. get ahold of mike or josh at parts4vws.com and you can get the set of moldings and flares for the compleate look for loke 4 bills I think. Happy
