Pretty sure you'll have to remove them. I know I did.
I had no issues, drove my GTI for about 2 years without them
Cool thanks bro. Hey are u still rocking bags
I have been on air for almost a year now. I left my fender liners in and just cut a slit in the middle of them so when I air out they open up. I have seen people that remove them and their engine bay gets super dirty really fast, so I left mine in and just cut them.
