Clean car man! Welcome, formally.

[John2.0T]

[rcarvell]

Those black strips look sweet!

[hamradio]

Very nice, I've always wondered what car you posses. I like it very much, the look of it is perfect. You're not going to do anything else to it, are you?

I'd find some spacers and call it a day. It looks great :beer:

[Casper]

looks nice. hope to see you at some meets

[silver saloon]

Hahaha, ive only just begun...

This spring im getting coilovers because im sick of my cupkit not being low. Also this spring im getting a badgeless grill and filled hood notch and also a shaved trunk. Then sometime next year im going FI...probibly VF Engineering Stage 2 supercharger. Down the line, im going to shave all the rub strips, door handles and mold the valances to the bumpers.

Im also getting some misc interior and exterior stuff..

Spacers are on the way...once the coils are on ill figure out what i should run

[Midw3st_dubn]

[silver saloon]

[Speed4]

Then sometime next year im going FI...probibly VF Engineering Stage 2 supercharger.

Think long and hard about SC'ing it.
I bet almost everyone who's SC'ed will tell you they wish they would have went right into a turbo.

[Digital K]

nice car, I like the rub strips :)

I know and ive been debating that alot. I guess keep hoping that VF will release Stage 3 but when that doesnt happen then i might go turbo...

[silver saloon]

nice car, I like the rub strips :)

thanks

[The_Stig]

IDK what it is but the front of your car looks fuckin great. I'm still a VW n00b but I'm guessing it's the headlights and/or black trim?

W/e it is I freakin love it and would seriously buy one just like your if I was in the market.

BMW guys SC
VW guys Turbo

That's the way it has always been, and the way it will always be. VDubs must be doing something right to have that be the case:thumbup:

[Die Frau]

maybe black mirrors??? some black side skirts, deff. tint the windows.

Just thinking out-loud.... the car does look really great. I wish I had the balls to try euro strips... too late now.

Yeah but imagine how sick it would be to have a blown VR6 running at like 20 psi...:drool:

Yup, black mirrors are next but NO TINT. I hate tint, it looks a ton cleaner without it IMO. I dont know yet about side skirts...

[teddymac]

I see a similar car at Kowalski's market all the time... is that you?

[Sucka612]

Welcome! I'm usually not a fan of rub strips but those look f'ing great

[silver saloon]

Yup, thats me. Do you shop there? Next time, stop in and say hi. I work in the produce dept. so come find me...

Thanks

[Die Frau]

hmmm, no tint eh? to each there own I guess.

You sayin' my car looks cheap?

Actually I went 5 years without tint... but decided that maybe it might minimize the break-ins.... guess that didn't work.

No, im not saying your car looks cheap. Im just saying that i dont like the look of it, thats all..And i would believe that tint would attract more breaks because to a theif you got your windows tinted because you want to hide something so that would make them want that...ie. drugs, electronics, cds.

Last summer i almost got tint because i was sick of my black leather burning me but i suffered through it and next summer ill prolly be complaining again and want tint but it wont happen :thumbup:

[Lindeland]

Car is clean. I might be the only one that doesn't like the black/textured rubs.

[teddymac]

I agree, I've never had tint for the same reason!

[Die Frau]

What are these CD's you speak of?

I am hiding all kinds of drugz though...

Oh yeah, ive driven down there before and now i remember that stretch of road..

Thanks for the heads up :thumbup:

I will keep that in mind too since I will be in that town next year... are you gonna be starting college or transfer?

This is why you dont go all crazy and black it out... theres no need to go 15% tint.... staying legal keeps alot of heat out... way more than you would think... mines about 40% keeps the leather way cooler than no tint and I have never been pulled over.. but then again, cops in Roch dont pull people over for tint.. or a lot of things for that matter..

Werd.

I have 35% and it's a night and day difference in terms of keeping the interior cool. I would have liked to go 20% but I don't know how the visibility would be plus I don't want to attract TOO much attention to myself. :biggrin:

i'll be a freshman at bethany lutheran
