All G40s came with the red strip on front and rear bumpers, but it's only a stuck on trim tape on an otherwise normal MK3 Polo bumper. If it's missing from your car it probably got a bit tatty and was removed. I think the correct stuff is obselete from VW but places like Halfords do it.

VW don't do it anymore, but yeh Halfrauds do the colour in red and I think yellow, don't know why and they also do a reflective version, which looks shit!
