I am prolly not the norm (rarely am I), but I did not need either one on the GTI...  I just scrapped it up.  I did have to use some 3M adhesive remover to get the gorilla snot off the edges ( you will see what I mean if you do not already understand ).  I recommend using shop rags (red cloth) to scrub the adhesive off with, doused with the remover of course...

Hope that helps, and no hard feelings...
