    Tastes awesome, granted that one was my 4th pint in, and I'm up to 7 pints on a Tuesday.

    He's talking about the control arms, axles and such.
    Good choice when you wanna run wide wheels with low offsets.
    I was going to do it on the Jetta to run my ML's...but not worth the effort/cost for me.

    Drove the Jetta and fixed the wipers a lil.

    You have to get:

    90-92 1.8L 100mm Mk2 Axles
    Mk2 Control Arms
    Tie Rods/Ends
    Ball Joints
    Strut bolts

    Here is a thread for it by Sam (aka SuperBacon)... Very well put together thread with recently updated links and such:

    http://forums.vwvortex.com/showthrea...ie-Rods-on-MK3

    I got all new EVERYTHING for about $260. Not bad for a nearly full front end refresh and some extra space. If you find things used, you can do it for even cheaper.

    Talked to my friend at a local shop about getting a TT testpipe installed a month before I am due for emissions. I love AZ, if it doesn't throw a code, they don't care.

    Same here in SC. We got rid of inspections in '95.
    We need a series like this state-side. I'm in if there is one, or will be one. VW Cup 2013, anyone?

    painted the rear headrest.
    before...colour on the camera washed it out looking bluish. It is the bone/beige interior.


    after


    I'm going to try wrapping black material around the other and staple/glue to see how that works...just like Martha Stewart's Home
