    That look fantastic!! Did the lower bumper come pre-painted from the factory? The tig should come with painted bumper from the factory, looks more complete.

    The wheel matches well too. Well done!!

    Looks great! How much did the Eibach's lower it? Looks like more than the usual like the H&R's or B&G's.

    Considering he's not in the U.S. I bet he paid a hell of a lot more than $33k U.S.D. for that Tiguan. I'd guess in U.S. dollars he spent well over $40k. It looks nice though.

    fwiw, i actually was more attracted to the Tiguan since it did not have DSG.
