second link is for a B6
first link looks promising. They have the DTM (CF) one for $200 cheaper. Of course it's not OEM

and I might go after that non-sline one, below it. Looks ABT'ish.

it's just a simple piece of carbon fiber. I can't imagine fitment being an issue with aftermarket copies, though, I could be wrong.
I'm going DTM too, in the future so this thread shall prove to be useful later.

i need to buy one and take it to the racing-boat shop near my place in Maine.. my buddy made a fortune making molds and dup'ing rare vw pzwo MK3 parts, a-b-c pillars, headliners, etc.
These, and the DTM rear lips would be a pretty easy piece to pump out

Unless you can confirm an aftermarket copy has similar quality and fitment, just go OEM. That's what I did.
Ultimately it guarantees that you won't have any hassles as you might with a different product.

I went with the OEM Carbon Fiber lip on my DTM as well. I had no fitment issues. Also, keep an eye out in the classifieds and elsewhere because you can usually find one for cheaper than $550.
Don't get an aftermarket and DO NOT paint it....

What kind of foglights are those? I still have my old fogs from non s-line bumper, will these work for the DIY fogs into DTM?

Sorry being off-topic, but I went through long way to upgrade my 2005 B6 cab to B7 (including re-wiring to B7s central electronics unit) and have a question - If you have DTM from, as I have, have no fogs in the front, how does your coming/leaving home work at front? I have it working in the back, but no light in the front - think that fogs should light up - but DTM doesn't have it. Thanks a lot!

When I get my DTM bumper, I'm definitely going aftermarket with the Carbon Creations one. I can't justify getting an OEM lip if its sole realistic purpose is to look like carbon fiber (check, that one does) and get scraped up (check, that one will too).
