I wanted to have a page where i could track the progress on my daily driver.. so here goes! i have my flame suit ready.. hehe

I purchased the car back in april and had to spend a bit of money to get the car running great. but thanks to the guys at http://www.europeanautotuning.com(if u need work done let them know Rj sent you!) in orlando the car is now in tip top shape.. here are the mods:
- AE 20th Headlights
- AE 20th lip
- GTI Taillights
- Euro Switch
- Front Fog Haness
- AE 20th Rear Lip
- AE 20th Roof Spoiler (not installed)
- Badgeless Grill w/ Hood and Bumper Filler (i did it GHETTO..lol.. it will be like this until i get a full paint job)
- HID XENON CONVERSION KIT H7 6000k (not installed)
- EURO STUBBY SHORT ANTENNA
- AE 20th Side Skirts Replica (not installed)
- 18" a8l Wheels with tires
- Bilstein full coilover suspension
- OEM Jetta Roof Rack
- Thule Bike Racks
- Neuspeed Strut Bar (not installed)
- Urban Camo Fabric 5 Yards (for headliner.. 50% done)
- Center Console w/ Cup Holders
- GTI Leather Seats
- Carbon Fiber Boser Hood (Not Installed)

Future Plans:
- Full paint
- Motor/tranny swap (cant decide on 1.8t or 24v vr6.. price IS a factor)

Here is how it looked the day I bought it:

8/10/07: installed headlights, removed DRLs, installed ae20th front lip (with my crappy paint job )

9/30/07: installed rear ae20th lip, a8ls, bilstein suspension, gti taillights, oem roof rack

10/7/07: installed badgeless 2 bar grill

10/27/07: and a rolling shot for good measure:

My favorite camera phone pic (right after i lowered the car, i had to raise the back a little after this pic because i had reverse strake lol):

The roof rack isn't just for looks! (no way i could have done this in my s2000!!)

Thank god you did the opposite

P.S. I just looked at the dates and you're going really fast with this car.
I think at this rate you'll get bored and sell it.

Your car is a myth, hard to believe its static, hard to believe its got 140k miles.

if i did.. im sure my soft top would be slashed and my seats would be gone.. lol

i traded my s2k for a tt.. so i still have my little project car..

Here is a pic of it.. currently in the shop getting a makeover tho..
