Got the same car but in black and have the same idea, already got the tint and coilovers with only 3k miles on it haha...I have been enjoying it so far and getting over 550 miles is always a plus too!Originally Posted by Nashty Rabbit
Hey everyone.
I usually introduce myself once I get into a new car so just wanted to say a quick hello.
Convienced my girl to sell her RDX and helped her pick up a 2012 Golf TDi from Dwight Harrison VW in Atlanta.
Car came with Nav/sunroof option and monster matt kit. Plans are simple, Tint, drop (nothing crazy), and wheels.
So far the car has been a blast to drive and look forward to long trips with minimal gas stops...
Nice Pick Up and good luck with it!
take care,
nash

it didn't take much convincing truth be told... she loves the look of the mk6 golfs. only negative we both agree on is the NAV system in the golf isn't up to par to what the RDX had.... get up and go is a less with the TDI as well, but the savings in fuel is well worth it we both think...

anyway, got spax springs on, ordered wheels from BFI (decided not to go crazy and buy expensive wheels so decided to buy her something i don't mind her curbing (if it happens, stay positive....)) so ordered a set of rotiforms in 19x8.5 et 45. , painted calipers black, and had good friend from garcia tinting put some tint on the car....
overall, i like it, and more importantly she loves it....
car sitting on a downward slant on this pic, but car sits perfect in my opinion for daily driving...
thanks again for the positive welcome...

Not a huge fan of black wheels anymore but that looks pretty good. I think a set of gloss black mirror caps would set it off perfectly.
