sorry if I didnt do everything correctly on this post, I just joined here.
But as far as the custom center caps go, its just the stock "VW" center caps but i taped off everything except for the chrome VW lettering and painted it teal. It took a few hours to tape off everything but it was well worth it.
I will post more pictures as soon as my car gets out of the shop, it needed a new hub in the front left.

No it's correct. I just don't see why you tagged stance.
My only other concern is HID's in your stock lamps. Other than that, killer and more pics

well when i put the 19" Audi wheels on it has a pretty nice stance, but still reasonable to drive. But as of now i have the orange LB's on as my winter set up.
Thank you i appreciate it, More pics will be posted up ASAP

Heres a pic of my car with the orange LB's, the sticker bombed interior pieces, and the taped off VW center caps prior to being painted. They were painted teal along with the calipers, and valve stems

You painted your valvestems?

Nick_McFaggle · #11 (**permalink**) 11-21-2012, 02:08 PM

Yeah I painted them teal along with the calipers and center caps. Oh I forgot, I have lug caps that I painted teal

Looks like you've got a start. Just a tip, take it easy on the photo editing. I can hardly see your car in that one pic

I love alex's posts here haha.

Usually I hate sticker bombing anything, but that doesn't look too bad. Good job.

And your tires look super low in that picture. And I agree with Miller, can't see anything in the last one.

Looks like you're having fun though so

Now rip out those HID's till you get projectors
