What did you do today to your CC ?

[IAHCC4MOTION]

Went to the dealer today and had them apply the Ressist All paint and leather protection. Paid $250.00 with a 7 year warranty.

Getting new speakers, amp and sub installed along with dynomat throughout. When I get back from travel I'm gonna have a 9500 installed (fuzzbuster) and see Dion about a rear swaybar and some spacers for the front wheels!

[Punch Dub]

Put on my shiny new "I support TX State Troopers" sticker.

Me too! I tried installing the tint the day I got it and failed miserably. I don't think I have the patience for it so I ended up tinting the reflectors and saving the rest for my spare amber turn signals. O well I'll try again someday. Modified by DahlbackRSI at 2:56 PM 4-22-2010

Oh no, now I'm worried. What went wrong?

For sure wayne! I'm in the pittsburgh area, so let me know if you're swinging through

Looks nice with the exception of the pin stripe. Have them remove that eye sore and you'll be golden! It ruins the natural lines of the car

[IAHCC4MOTION]

I actually had the dealer put the stripe on, it's a two tone cream to match the cornsilk interior. I like the look.

It doesnt flow with the lines of the car, at all though?

[08VWEGG]

LOVE the pinstripe

[Veedubin02]

I made some more progress on the LED project.

[MagyarCC]

Installing my new 19" wheels and Goodyear tires tonight at NGB here in NoVA. Now I get to figure out when I get there in the wheels are TPMS compatible and what type of lug nuts my wheel takes. Never knew there were so many damn details to just installing a new wheel... GEESH!

[Veedubin02]

All wheels are compatible, you need the special valve stems with the TPMS sensors on them.

[Us2bA4dr]

sold our 19's today...

[crazywayne311]

havent done anything lately....but yesterday, a huge ass rock hit my side mirror so hard that i jumped in my seat and it chipped the paint pretty damn good...F SUVS!

[RafaGolfBr]

Cleaned the SHIZNITS out of my car... inside a complete clean + seat care, engine bay clean-up, and wash + Wax for the outside...

I feel your pain Wayne!

[crazywayne311]

ha ha thanks....yeah i was driving with the windows down enjoying the weather and then WHAM! i literally jumped out the seat. i thought something was broken!

[EvoVEnto]

little pic from yesterday at lunch

[Ween2010]

Smoked my tail lights R-line style using film. Only did the inner ones so far. Working my way up to tackling the larger, more curved outer ones. So far, so good.

[MrRline]

Evo that's looking really nice man got any more pics of the whip?

[caj1]

Finally got rid of those god awful stock all season tires and installed a set of Conti Extreme Contact DW summer tires.. Unbelievable difference in handling, steering response and road noise. Highly recommended

[CanWillGo]

we picked our CC up from the dealership... been waiting about 9 weeks for her to be made then shipped. so excited to have it home... now to drop it about 1.5 inches, swap out the amber for clear blinkers and find some nice tips... not liking the tips that were on the CC in the dealer showroom. spend the money and weld the f-ers on. it looks so much better than a wrenched on jobber it's a beautiful vehicle don't cheapen it with that crap VWofA -are you listening???

we had Jason Good at Fade to Black put on the front clear bra with trailing edge wheel openings and mirror covers, tinted the windows to 35% when the car was delivered. Thayer VW in MI is pretty good...

[crazywayne311]

Talked to a WHOLE bunch of VWoA people...who really admired my car a lot btw one of which said he was the head marketing director for VW DE ha ha. and he REALLY liked my CC. i tried to trade him the CC for his brand new Touareg TDI in black!

also talked to a lot of hot VW chicks working the show! maui wowie! ha ha

won some sweet VW swag and got to talk to APR for a bit with Bud.

So I installed my Billy Boat Downpipe (Same as A3, GLI/GTI MK5) and officially went STAGE 2 with APR!! Just a little bit louder under heavy load but stock when cruising. Its a Challenge to keep 2nd gear from not Spinning now

Here are two pics of the Downpipe:

Yeah! That was me! Were you in the black CC? I didn't hang out long around the VW corral though, we had VIP passes for the VW tent, so we ate and drank ALL day ahnging out with the drivers and the VW ladies. This was one of the best times I've had at a car event. We also met Patrick Dempsey (80's actor from Loverboy and Can't Buy me Love and more recently Made of Honor and Sweet Home Alabama and Grey's Anatomy) Cool guy. Drove the piss out of his tuned Mazda in the Conti Race.
Wish I had hung out more around the VW folks that cruised up. Met John, the owner of the NGP in Lorton, cool guy!

[crazywayne311]

yeah that was me in the black CC. i figured whoever the CC owner was, and was on the forum, they'd be like...oh look its crazywayne! ha ha but yeah that was me. damn how'd you get the passes? i wish mine were VIP but then again, i was fine since Bud hooked me up. which mazda was he driving? i heard he was supposed to be there. but yes, the VW girls were hot! get any numbers?! ha ha i'm going again next year though for sure. good times.

i got to meet a handful of people too. all the NGP guys saw me chilling by the CC and came over to talk about it with me. Some of the APR guys came by and checked it out in the corral too. i met the Head Marketing Director for VW DE and he was in love with my car. while i was parking my car trying to get my tickets, friend of mine said that there were 6 people with VWoA gettin there VIP passes and all they did was talk about my car in line! ha ha so i was happy with her first showing lol

but next year some of you guys in VA should roll

Thats awesome dude. Its fun driving a head turner. I was down in blacksburg and noticed people taking pics of my car while tailgating and I had a dude in an MKIII take a video of me driving by him on 81 haha. Sounds like the VIR was a good time.

Damn, wish I wasn't so anxious to go see the races, I should have hung out around the corral more. Oh well, next year. That was a L O N G F'ing drive to get there though! Need to get me a radar detector detector, make the trip faster!

well i saw you cleaning the car and was like...mines dirty from the rainy drive and i'm NOT trying to clean and scratch it.

but yeah i came back to drop my VW schwag off a few times and at one point just crashed in the CC for a break. of course, the R8s parked right in front of me kinda killed my thunder lol

but yeah, my day started off well though. i couldnt find a spot to park to get my tickets. a spot opened up and as i went to park some ****** in a golf cart parks there. so i wedged in a spot and was a bit in the road. a Q5 driver about 5 min later drives up while a bunch of VW execs and I are in line and goes..."is that your CC? (me) yes it is. (him) well you need to learn how to park it then (me) thanks for the tip di#$head. ha ha everyone started laughing. then the VWoA people in front of me got denied and they were carrying VW credentials.

but its worth it. i think next year we all should go. i'll be there...that is all lol

[TheRodfather]

Finally broke out the VCDS and did the tweaks I've been delaying.
Enabled "Fogs as DRLs". I like having DRLs but not the same as my headlights. So, even though it doesn't actually activate the fogs, I will run the corner lights as DRLs to see if I like it.

Enabled Window Up/Down via remote and also enabled rain sening window up. All of that stuff was really simple. Even easier than the PDF from the MKV forum makes it look.

While just looking through all of the long coding stuff, I noticed that there was an option to enable some voice activation stuff. Is that one of the things needed (plus the new RNS update) to get voice activation?

Also washed the car.

[i29gtaylor]

Ordered tint for the rear tail lights. Weekend project since it's supposed to rain...

[TheRodfather]

So are you hinting that it MAY come in a future firmware? And would it be a simple firmware plus enable via vagcom and viola, it's done? Or would it require parts and/or hardware?

[TheRodfather]

Your hints are awesome.

[chapin04]

just washed and waxed
