    i normally don't like that style of tails, but in my opinion, they work very well in this application...

    well done as usual matt...

    take care,

    looks great but you should reconsider straight piping it... I had an aba turbo straight piped and it was so loud it actually made me feel sick

    Agreed, I think the marine blue suits that car really nicely. Bright blue metallic could be a pretty cool color and it never came on a jetta. My $.02

    I'm on the fence; seems "not-european", but then again.. 90's too so hey. I will say, the color will pop even more on your wheels, imo.

    I want to do something similarly fun with my engine bay (different color exterior though).

    really, if youre gonna do that shade of blue, why not go OEM and make it that baby blue that almost every MK1 Rabbit here in town seems to be painted in?
