What do you use to stick the rear mods to the trunk ?
How well does it stick ?
Is it removable ?

cut it out as close as possible to the contour, used 100% silicone, white. sticks real well, i can use it to open/close the trunk(boot). removable only if i don't want to put it back on.
i plan to remove it tomorrow, just to see if there is any diff in mpg. have already removed the side pieces with no change.

About your rear spoilers, I quite didn't get if they were angled but I think it is the way to go.
And about the usefulness of the sides, what you wand to get rid of is the round shape which you didn't (for obvious reasons in the rear light area)

i will see how it does without it first. if there is no change, it will stay off. rear skirts and smooth wheel covers are on my mind a lot lately.

very interrsting my car that shares VAG A4-platform with your Jetta.
1999 Skoda Octavia 1.9 TDI 110 cv Laurin & Klement Gas Mileage (EcoTxec) - EcoModder.com
with less aeromods and also a taller gear it does at ease 3.3 to 3.4L/100kms long trips of 700 kms. Speeds between 90 to 100 km/h.
but conmute trips and air conditioning and also hw speeds of 120 km/h doesn.t permit to do full tanks under 4.3 L/100km so easy.
what engine dow yo have in Helga ALH 90 cv VE rotary pump? or is it a 90 cv TDI with wastegate turbo? or maybe a PD 101 engine?
