Does anyone know if there is any differences between the yellow beam tube and the black one. My original beam was yellow with silver tape on the arb's. Just got another beam but its black with purple tape on the arb's. Any info much appriciated.

Measure the diameter of the torsion bars, Gti-6 ones should be 20mm, post up the size of your ones on here and someone will know what model they are off,Does sound like you have lower spec ones on though, ________________________________________ Team Supercharged Gti-6™ |
