    Nice pic, I like the tint you did on the top of the windshield, I've been thinking of doing that myself...

    Thanks... I just recently got that done. $20 by my tint guy. Looks nice and stops that annoying glare when your head on to the sun.

    Is your hood/roof a different color, or is that just the picture/light?

    Hey, DOQ.....

    What is the part number for the "clear lenses" to replace the yellow corner lens next to the headlights and where did you get them?

    I already have the LED DRL's, from Achtuning Korea.

    Thanks,

    TM

    The reflection on the side kinda makes it look like it is turning invisible from the ground up.

    Thanks. And yes they are oemplus.

    I'm blown away by the quality and strength of the wheels.
    I've hit several pot holes and lots of uneven roads.. No issues at all.
    Not even any blemish from road debris... Very impressed

    Yeah, I've been thinking about doing that for awhile now. Wish someone made a tint strip that faded like the tint around the mirror.

    Either way I'm all over that DTM look.

    Don't buy the pre cut... It's never right. Just get the sheet or bulk.. It's easier to work with and more forgiving.

    Thanks man.. Glad you remembered the mk5.

    I only go oem+.

    As for tint I have 2 great recommendations..

    In long island I personally would go to rich at underground tinting.
    http://www.undergroundtinting.com/

    If your closer to queens/Nassau.. Then see Joe at the tint shop. He's right around the corner from the vw dealer.
    516-829-7336

    Both excellent guys.
    Underground a bit money but lifetime warranty on tints.

    Your car looks great! The more I see it, the more I want to plastidip the center grill bars like yours. I forget, do those come off easily?

    Not the Plastidip, I mean the chrome bars, do I need to take off the whole grill to get those off or do I just yank on them? Unless that's what you mean by pulls off like latex.

    My bad.
    I actually just masked them out... Took a while but Eugene took it apart.
    I think the whole grill has to come out.
    Not too much work.
