Not sure how they could lose the box, it's the size of a freaking fridge!
Cool, mine should be here any day too!Ordered June 15th, arrived today June 26th. 11 days to Long Island NY.
Now to put together a hardware list to call in at the VW dealership.

It'll probably be significantly cheaper to buy from e-acca if you don't mind waiting a few weeks longer.
just did this.Oh, K-Rap!!
Finally getting around to installing the "splash guard/skid plate" (5Q0825902B) I ordered/received months ago via eBay for my DSG GTI, and ... NO vents.
Thinking serious of modding it with a couple of cut-outs.
Figure a drill and sabre saw may do the job.
Would be GREAT to hear from anyone else who's already done this job.
TIA.
The exhaust cover did not fair so well. It was sucked right off the car on the main straight on the first lap when I hit about 150-160kph. I was not able to recover it.
To attach I used:
N0385494 spreader rivets
N90974701 hex nuts
Definitely not sufficient for this use. More heavy duty fixing is required. I'm not sure if the alternatives suggested 8E0 825 267 and 4D0 807 300 address this.
@GolfDave did you see ECS is doing a Street Shield full tunnel cover/brace for the MK7 Golf? They have both FWD and AWD version and it is "supposed" to work on TDI and gassers alike. They were thoughtful enough to include small vents to help with the heat situation that we saw the DIY version earlier in this thread had. Price is a little steep but that is, of course, relative to the buyer.
Check it out here >>>> Street Shield Tunnel Brace
Strange...are the "wings" behind the side covers?
Mines ok....& I've been at that speed ....overtaking about three cars & a truck.......
