Hello Jason,
the arches for Golfs only fit A2 Golfs and come from the limited edition
G60 Golf in England.  They definately won't fit (without modification)
stock Scirocco arches =(.  DTM stands for Deutch Tourenwagen
Meistershaft.  It is a type of defunct racing (as of the 96 season)
which was  comprised of Mostly Mercedes,  Alfa Romeo, and Opel (European
GMC) which were four door sedans.   They all have single wipers for
aerodynamics, and DTM cup-style mirrors and now are popular aftermarket
items (I sell them!  =)  )  The DTM exhaust tips are upswept a bit.  I
am putting one on my Scirocco this week.  Hope you are satisified!
