That is sick.

On a side note, nice watch! I just got a Skyhawk AT for Christmas and am still figuring out how to use it

Interested in the results.

Switch mounting is nice and clean. Curious about the choice to use manual switches. Dumping air in the car might get old pretty quickly.

I'm sure it'll look great. Have you had other bagged vehicles? Fun, but daily driving can be challenging.

Any ideas for wheels yet?

First....awesome.

Second, is this the bottom of the shifter? I'm assuming you have a DSG. The reason I ask is that I want confirmation that the DSG in-cabin shift selector is not physically connected to the transmission. If the selector isn't connected, I might be one step closer to getting the manual +/- reversed so the opperate like they should (downsift = forward and upshift = backward)

You weren't kidding when you said it sat low :D

Nice work. It's going to look pretty sweet with some nice wheels.

Actually, I'm curious, how much does changing ride heights affect alignment? Is there a specific height you're going to default to and align the car there? Basically, how are you planning on keeping the tires flat?

I usually ride at 70psi on all 4 corners, so I will align it at that ride height.

It might not align to spec, but my guy can usually get them close.

Dude that is looking so bad a-s-s. You should look into a set of the snowflake custom VW 18's they are selling on vwvortex, they would look so sick on your car.:eek:

ouch. This thread makes me cry!

Why have you ruined such a beautiful machine.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Just wonder over to Vortex and look at the MK6 Stance thread. :)

BTW: I think it looks great!
