    I don't have the wheels on anymore, so getting 2 matching (lowered and raised) pics is difficult right now. Basically, I want these wheels with white faces with the fenders in the lips instead of tucked.

    It came painted and debadged for you? Nice!
    If your gas cap light comes on even if you think you tightened the cap, try pulling on the cap as you tighten it. Worked for me.
    Help us with suspension specs!

    It's the one AWPower made. Gotta give a shoutout to him as well, great work on it! I'm planning on doing some custom leafing on the slates, in order to get them to have that brushed look.

    Most definitely! Hopefully will have it all done and on by the end of next week!

    On another note (I tried searching but only came up with GTI ones). Does anyone know what fuse is for the headlight washers? I want to pull it, or something since the front bumper is getting shaved this weekend.

    That's possible? I tried searching for that to awhile back, but came up empty handed.

    I'm fairly certain it is. Mine have been disconnected for over a year, just been needing to get it turned off.

    Hmmmm, ok. Did you just disconnect them in the bumper? No issues with spray or anything like that coming out still? I just want to make sure that they don't try and come out or any crap like that after the bumper is shaved, that'd be the last thing I'd need to happen.

    I disconnected it from the bumper and emptied the tank as well. No issues, just the stupid low washer fluid warning every 5seconds or what not

    So I need some helpful opinions from my fellow b.:Rethren here... I got the badgeless grill still waiting to go on, it's been on hold with the new exhaust and everything coming in

    Anyways, I'm trying to get opinions on what to do with the grill... I have called around a few places and tossed around some ideas about trying to get it to look like the stock "brushed" look, but it's looking like that'd be rather pricey if I go that route... Also tossed around doing some custom leafing on it, but there isn't anyone on island that knows how to do that stuff really 2 other options, paint it silver and hope it looks good, or gloss black and redo my mirror covers black as well...

    Opinions?

    I like how it currently is (plastidipped?) but personally, I would stick with some sort of silver or black and keep it simple since it gets a lot of wear. Maybe a vinyl wrap of some kind? I've mentioned the vinyl before and it seems like the best option to me if you don't like the plastidip look.
    If your gas cap light comes on even if you think you tightened the cap, try pulling on the cap as you tighten it. Worked for me.

    Not plastidipped just regular exterior paint with good amount of coats

    I was thinking a gloss black, then also adding a clearbra to it in order to protect it.
