He's been around for a while... even used to own a TR MKIV R!

[skaven-R32]

[Dubbin'Duriiim]

Ahhh my favorite color

[TornadoR32]

[TornadoR32]

Jealous, but I wish you would have done the Audi fitment.

18x8.5 +35

What size tires did you get?

I thought about it, but hoping to stance similar to Hermie. I went with the Dunlop SP Sport Maxx GT.. Conti DW is on backorder and these seemed similar in price and ratings. 225/40/18

[TornadoR32]

quick iPhone update. some SLR pics to come soon.

[Dr. Hermie]

Looks good.

[TornadoR32]

Looks good.

Thanks mang! You were/are the inspiration!

thank you, sir.

drove her into work this morning:

[PSU]

Man, that was quick with the wheels.

Love it.

Edit: You should unplug those bulbs in your side markers. That's one of my biggest pet peeves. LOL.

Alright boss.

[TornadoR32]

debadged the R32 emblem from the back this evening. hoping to shave front and rear this winter.

[madcrzydrmr]

from one TR to another: I dig your setup

*Buuut being my dorky dooshy self, I would keep the .:R signature. I like the full shaved hatch, but seen gti's fully shaved rocking our exhaust and rear valence (along with bags... ) at gtg's. So I guess my point is that my dream of owning a .:R came true and my pride of able to own a .:R, I'd like to have it known. I would shave the hatch, but keep the badge to let all know that it's the real deal..

either way, yours is tits

my TR:

[entirelyvw]

I like the direction you're taking with your R.

Ever thought about finishing off those side mirrors with some smoked lenses?

Thank you! I picked up colormatched front bumper lights and smoked mirror turn signals at Waterfest this past weekend. They are on the car I just havent taken any pictures yet. Probably will this weekend.

I also will be taking out the front helper springs sometime soon since Hermie said I could get a little more low action with that. Lastly, I picked up RED BBS center caps for my CHs this weekend which I will also put on when I remove the helper springs.
