Expert Reply:
Curt hitch, part 11074, was designed to fit the factory body trims. If the ground effects you have are aftermarket or dealer installed, the hitch may not fit. I have added a link to the instructions for the hitch below that include a profile diagram of where the hitch sits in relation to the rear bumper cover and some of the undercarriage.
Take a close look at the diagram and compare it to the body on your GTI. It should give you some insight as to whether or not the hitch will fit.
