how does it look on a 4dr?? people were telling me I'm crazy to put it on a 4dr. idk.

[das-yeti]

I hate the jetta front on 2drs but love it on the 4drs I work at a body shop so its hard for to pick a color for it. My R will be house of colors candy Apple red though....1k for just the paint so no turning back now

My buddy is painting my car. His brother owns a huge body shop over here in OH. He can get me all the supplies free and Im just paying labor. For being a friend hes only charging $700 to paint it. Its getting full respray, engine bay, jams, and underneath.

You are getting a deal then. I do all my own work so no labor just paint cost. Doing half cups, smoothed and shaved bumpers and fenders, mk5 hatch emblem/latch and maybe Audi gas flap.

Im shaving the rub strips on the doors, my rear emblem, hatch handle, and hood notch. Im not sure about the bumpers because I wouldnt know what to use. And arent they way less flexible that way aswell?

Looks good dude, if you need black seat belts I have a complete setup for sale cheap that will really help finish off that interior

I have them, i just got the interior and put it in, but forgot to put the seat belts in. The whole interior is comming apart again when the car gets painted and Im redoing the headliner and **** too. Thanks though

keep the rub strips!!

Good progress though, turned around nicely

[JimboMac]

It's unbelievable how a set of fat fives and some new taillights can completely transform your car from kinda ricey to clean.

I like the direction you are headed with the car, I look forward to seeing even more progress in the future.

Good stuff bro.

[foundubbedriver]

i think i like where this is going..

[19birel]

I like where your headed man, keep it up And I think the rave green will look sick, aristos or RCs would go well once you get your Jetta front.

Thanks man, I would love a set of RC's/ Im just way too picky with wheels. I want them to be as close to perfect as posible. My FatFives arent perfect, but for what I paid it was a hell of a deal

Ive never plastidipped anything.

I just got my first ticket yesterday. I was pulled over for running a red light. i went through a yellow, but the cop said i have enough time to stop. He ended up letting me off with a tint ticket so i wouldnt get my liscense suspended, he was a pretty cool dude. He also told me to mount my front liscense plate. Today I removed my tint and mounted the plate. Ill get pics of fishbowl status during the day tomorrow maybe. I figured Id post pics of how i did my front plate though.

Im 16

[|Alex|]

you are doing it wrong
drill small holes in the plate and use white zippies so the whole thing is invisible

[EzumA7]

yea...what the heck are you doing with that cut up front license plate?

[MarkedIVGTI]

ehhhh...

Need to get rid of the eyelids, fix your exhaust (they call it a non-cutout valence for a reason). Lower the front in the spring and pick up something bigger than 16's!

its all the rage in 2012

Why not bend up a liscense plate?? I was told by a cop to desplay it on the front of my car anyway possible. Im not drilling holes in my bumper, so why not fold it up and zipt tie to my grill?? It looks kind of like a short europlate if you ask me

did you not think about maybe leaving the license plate normal and using zip ties still

[Mr. Watson]

i lold. But seriously kid you're retarded. I'm hoping you'll see the light in a couple of weeks and realize that everything you're doing to your car now is dumb as ****.
