Folks, I got this 1995 Jetta because I've had about 4 Jettas in 1:1, including one in black. I put off this 1/43 purchase for quite a while because I wish model makers would stop adding spoilers and other fancy touches to the boring sedans that I drive. I just want a boring old model that looks like my cars did for my layout. ANYWAY, when I got this model I was thrown by what looks like a soccer goal net in the back seat.

My assumption is that it's leftover sprue but the screw on the underside is pretty tight and I've been unable to open the car up to investigate. Surely it's not a roll bar as that makes no sense but, as I said, mfgrs like to soup up boring sedans.

See the soccer goal in the back seat?

Nicely detailed interior otherwise. That is NOT dust on the side! (At least I sure hope it isn't :

Thoughts?
