I'm really digging the white on the MK5's, perfect color for them. What wheels are you thinking about? Damn that graffitti is awesome!

Actually lately I've been thinking about something polished or chrome, I think they'd compliment the chrome front nicely. If I don't do that then I'll paint the front white. Looks like I might order coilovers tonight too

Awesome! Can't wait to see the heap closer to the ground. Love the candy white. Looks so perfect with the black and red.

Yeah it'll be real low, the new super sport springs lower it 1.9". Some people reported actually tucking a little bit in back, but most people havea 1 finger gap in front and none in back.
