FINALLY got the zipties off of the midlle lower grill and the retaining clips back on. Joey modded the headlights and the wife picked out her new wheels/tires, Hopefully they will get ordered on Monday, and on before Waterfest.

^ Nice.

Today I got a crack in the windshield repaired, second one in six months.

**JIMBO ROBERTS** · 07-20-2007 03:39 PM

Received My CPT adjustable rear control arms with stainless steel heims today. I will adjust my suspension height this weekend, actually raising the car up to accommodate an addtional load of my upcoming Rocky Mountain Flyfishing trip. Swap out the Aristos for my RS10's. I then will be putting the CPT's on, adding a new rear bushing and getting a 4 wheel alingnment next week. Give it a full detail and wax. Then load up all the gear for 3 weeks of Colorado and Montana.

**JayJetta** · 07-20-2007 03:49 PM

Looks like got it done right, Congrats NJVR. Looks real good. I want to do my bumper by september. Like i told you, i wanna shanve my own bumper and have someone spray it. if you don't mind me asking, how much did they charge to do the bumper.

**rhussjr** · 08-22-2007 09:23 PM

Well, I ordered my wheels today, should be here by Friday (hopefully).

**rhussjr** · 03-15-2008 07:42 PM

Bought a set of front & rear rotors & Mintex pads from Autotech to go on the R this past week. I also bought a headlight leveling kit fo my Euro head lamps from ECS tuning. I have a case of Amsoil 75-90 gear oil that I bought, so I can change the trans and rear diff fluid out. I just need to take a day off work to do it all.

**MatadoR32** · 03-15-2008 07:49 PM

Old thread, but good one.

I bought $50 worth of car wash stuff. Going to wash, clay bar, and wax my car tonight around 11p. Happy spring to my car!

**BLU R32** · 03-15-2008 07:51 PM

Oil and Filter change; A thorough underhood and interior detailing; Re-assembly of my left lower dash and steering column cover after replacing the ignition switch TWO weeks ago; Topped off washer and brake fluid... Exterior tomorrow- polish and wax; Spring Cleaning

**rhussjr** · 03-16-2008 01:45 PM

So far today, I have changed the gear oil in the trans with the Amsoil that I had bought. Next up, the rear diff.

**4R32** · 03-16-2008 01:56 PM

my .:R's still getting an oil cooler seal repair at VW

I miss my R

**rhussjr** · 03-16-2008 06:20 PM

Well, I didn't get to the rear diff, but I did get to give it a bath. Once I get a day off (either next Friday or the following Monday for Easter), I will install the brakes, change the rear diff fluid and work on my headlight adjustment install (if it comes in in time). I spent part of the day this morning making a set of rear adjustable rear control/track arms. I have to stop by and pick up more material for making a couple more sets. Here is a pic of the set that I finished up today. I need to get some paint to coat the arms, as I ran out while spraying the outer end links:

**Memphis R32** · 03-16-2008 10:33 PM

Picked up the car at the Airport and drove it home. Im so glad to be out of a rental Chevy Malibu

**blueduece** · 03-16-2008 10:42 PM

dropped mine off at Holbert's VW for timing chain noise at 48000 miles. Hope they don't have it too long

**rhussjr** · 03-17-2008 09:39 PM

I drove my freshly washed R to work and keep getting censored. Quit deleting my post.

**j-dub** · 03-17-2008 10:07 PM

Did you ever post pics of your car with the modas?

**rhussjr** · 03-18-2008 06:10 AM

I will take some this weekend.

**rhussjr** · 03-22-2008 05:59 PM

I installed the drilled rear rotors and Mintex brake pads yesterday and tomorrow I hope to install the front rotors and pads. Today, I wired up the head light levelers and rear fog light. It would have been better is ECS had made the kit come with a power and ground wiring option so that you didn't have to do anything but plug it up and install the levelers.

**rhussjr** · 04-04-2008 04:17 PM

Had to replace a coil pack today (#6) as one went out last night on my way home from work.

**maxxtout99** · 04-05-2008 12:45 AM

What did I do to my R today? I blew my turbo.

seriously though
