    Fuel pressure gauge. I also have an AFR, and an electronic N2O gauge for sell if you want them lol anyway, I started using FPG ever since I had my Camaro, it just makes me feel more comfortable seeing what pressure it's at.

    I guess you like the look a little better with all of the chrome removed? lol me too.

    The lights are kind of busy and the gauge looks kind of cheap i'd say keep working on it. What do you have planned next
    I changed my oil with diluted KY Jelly and I really like it. Drove it 3 miles no problem yet. Highly recommend it.

    Actually no, the chrome jetta grille is the best of all for that bumper. Rabbit front end is the best period.

    I actually agree with the gauge thing. The gauge itself wasn't cheap, but what's holding it is actually from a gauge pillar I had lying around and just decided to modify it.I'll get some good "artistic" shots after it stops raining and I can actually wash it again.

    And my next project is lowering it about an 1 1/2' or so, 17' or 18' rims, and getting the windows re-tinted (15%-20%). The only performance parts so far is a Magnaflow exhaust. It sounds great, and it's actually a little deeper than I expected, with absolutely no rasp at all. I've decided that I'm not going to have a 3 page list of performance mods like I had on my Camaro lol So my plans are: Suspension upgrade, intake upgrade (carbonio), and prolly an ECU upgrade. Although the 2.5l turbo kit looks VERY tempting.....lol

    Yeah lowering and wheels will help. And I didn't want to sound like I was hating on the gauge but the fitment didn't look right (even though the location itself isn't a bad idea). You could always get a vent mount on that same side and it seems like you already have the gauge and everything so just the vent itself shouldn't be too expensive.
