im gonna talk to one of the guys at work who knows a lot of tattoo artists and see if one of them is up for it

[Shameless]

Anyone who hobby in glass etching would be good too.

[fukn_dubn_gti]

I think that's gonna be cool! Like maybe a cool zombie theme or something

[-vdub-]

i havent been able to figure out a theme, im thinking something that wont get old, or isnt part of a fad, because there isnt rele an easy way to go about removing the engraving if i dont like it down the road

[Shameless]

If its chemically etched it's only a few hundred thousands of an inch deep. Easily sanded off.

But obviously do something you'll wanna keep!

[stealthpassat]

If you have enough clear the paint should hold my buddy painted his vc to match the exterior of his car has over 15k so far and still looks great

Painting it is up in the air, leaning towards etching it of maybe getting it pin striped and then clearing it again. Etching it is also in the air, or leaving it in its raw beauty. I may end up making a poll about this

[stealthpassat]

Ehhh its your car man… Screw the poll do something different that you like and if you personally don't like it fuck it do something else.

sooo a little update, just got the car back from usp motorsports. they did my narrowband to wideband ecu swap, and im now running on eurodyne maestro. i must say, hands down the best software out there. a plain base map gave me noticeable gains over my revo stage 2. but due to time constraints im going to get a k04 and put that in for sowo and work on my paint and body work. also shaved my trunk today pics will be up after its painted

[Shameless]

Sweet, do work son.

[rodgertherabit]

another win for Maestro! Its annoying how people hate on it. The Base files was just as solid as my Uni was and I can change it whenever I want haha. Sure its no standalone, but its a much easier way to get an adjustable tune you can do in your garage ! :thumbsup:

Sure its convoluted, but you can learn it or find someone who knows whats up.

[Pssst...passed you]

I showed mine before paint, let's see it!

i love eurodyne, on a blown turbo it shows noticeable improvements over revo and the car is just smoother in general. pics will be up soon due to peer pressure lol
