so right now we are waiting for all those parts i bought to come in. so in the meantime we are trying to figure out all of the wiring that is involved which is alot lol. so in about 2 weeks the car should be done and i will have updated pics as we go along but this is how the car sits as of today (3-5-09).


PLEASE NO TRASH TALKING!!!!

 

those ground control coilovers are awesome. i put a set in my buddy's E36 M3 and it handles amazing. GL with your project. once you get the harness in it should be a cakewalk. but i imagine you'll be selling this soon so put me on the waiting list to buy it lol

 

lmao yeah right after all this time and money i am keeping this fucking car lol. and yes the suspension is amazing!

 

Sweet looks like a bad ass project ! Dont know much about vw cars but I've seen some pretty sick ones in that body style

Also are you going to keep this one lol ? I always see you picking up something new or selling something

 

Nice.

 

nice man. cant wait to see it done

 

Nice nice. I'll try to see what the deal is with that one I told you about that doesn't move ever. He may be parting it. I'll let you know. The body is mint so you could maybe get re bumpers that aren't faded or somethin.

Lookin good so far though

 

true that yeah the bumpers arent fading the car is just covered in lime rock and dust. once it is done it will be fully detailed by my buddy and will be looking brand new. and i think i will be keeping this car a long time

 

i cant wait till its done either

 

Looking good man, but strangely familiar.
