Thanks guys!
I kinda wish I would have stuck with the valances, but I think it was a good trade on my end. I'm pretty excited to run them.
Means a lot manyeah the more flake the better.
Not sure on wheels this time around. Might run the 3SDM wheels in the white and polished finish when they come out, and save for something new next year.
Will do! I'm sure it will be at most of the big shows next year. And H2O this year.
I plan on this one going way past where the mk5 was. I can't wait.
It was definitely a hard choice, but I still have my shaved bumpers so I can always switch back whenever I want. Thinking about getting them painted at the same time.

I finished putting the exterior back together today.
Can't really capture the new color in photos, so you guys will have to wait until H2O.
And one of how it looked Friday.

Thannks for all the kind words everyone!
I'm really happy with how the paint color turned out. Just enough of a difference for people to have to do a double take. And as for the R bumpers, I just think they look a lot cleaner and more smooth than the GTI ones. Plus I got a hell of a deal on them so I had to do it.
Next on the list is to get my exhaust made and start building everything else.
-wheels
-air
-motor/BT
-partial shaved bay

It's been a while since I've visited the MKIV forums since I sold my R32 back in February, but this build is ****ing awesome! If I were ever to buy another MKIV, it would be something exactly like this, one with good interior/engine but ****ty exterior so I could shave things and repaint it. This turned out amazing, and I love the color! My R32 had a badgeless grille, and i just think it looks so good with the R32 front bumper. Keep it up dude, can't wait to see where this goes!
