    More pics to come. Redid the fenders...nice having friends at other shops with $2500 spot welders. I'm gunna try and have the fenders bodyworked so possibly may have the jams trimmed out and the good fenders back on.

    Just got home from the shop...great night of doing werk. Much props to Mrs Egokiller for keeping me motivated and throwing down on a ton of work. When I said I was changing the color I didn't realize how much I hate all of those interior clips....nothing getting half assed here!

    Trying to get the jams and have it trimmed out so I can put it back together this weekend. Then its on to the exterior...mk5 hatch and fix the few small dings she has. Fenders are shaved and ready for primer and blocking.

    Too bad I can't fit 2 sets of wheels in my car, then at least we could swing by when I get mine in a couple of weeks from SMOOTH.

    i thought that is what you guys were/are doing? I talked to justin tonight and he said that was the plan....regardless, you should be able to get 2 sets in the back of an R with the seats folded down...heck take the rears out, they will go in there 100%

    Based on your spacial outlay it is the plan...last I had talked to her about it I was wondering if they would fit but you talked me into it.
