Thanks, I got the majority of the stuff on Saturday. It was well received at blowneuros, but I built it for myself and will continue to do so (having other's like it is a bonus.)

I need to paint behind the grill since the over spray of the bumper shows through, but I am going to keep it like this for a bit. I had thoughts of painting the gloss black and wheels burgundy/ brown but I like the way it sits.

Looking good bro. When you going air?

Ducky 2.0T

It is kind of up in the air (no pun intended).

BDA is working on a new setup that they just put on michaelmark5's wife's GTI (the red one next to me above) that is one step in the direction of their new kit they will be offering soon. Cost wise, I could probably swing it, but I graduate from law school in a year and I don't know how much longer I will keep this car. It's getting to be ridiculous and air would put it over the top.

I like the stance in its static state, but I commute from Limerick to Wilmington daily for work and then up to school 3 days a week. Cracking my sub frame is inevitable, but i've got my routes mapped out and we (my wife) have an SUV for the weekends.

Seems that way :cool:nah, I just joined up here a few weeks ago, because of all the locals on here & to get involved in some more meets, etc... I actually have a passion for japanese sportbikes too, hondas's, zuk's, etc... I've been riding a couple years now. I like this site, less drama than the vw world.

Looking good, man. Definitely understand about not wanting to pull up to the law firm in this, though. I don't think they'll take you seriously.

the mk4 forum is HORRIBLE. I cant imagine the mk5 forum being too much better/worse though.


OP, car looks awesome man. The more mk5s i see done, the more I really want one.

Def yes, IMo the MKV scene is ruthless. If you stray out of bounds from the VW playbook, everyone calls you rice. In that case call me uncle ben :mrgreen:

The MKVI will be out soon, so the MKV prices should be going down.

I do miss my MKIV VR6 GTI, but that was because of the exhaust note.

Great eye... That is indeed 20squared's new home. We put my coils on there and Rob rolled the fenders. I hope to go back in a few weeks to get my frame notched because my axle is making sweet love with the subframe.

It wont be long until they are pretty much fully up and running.

Yeah.. I wish I could put the front a tad lower, I already clip a few of those raised bumps on 422 as it is.

Already talked to 20squared about air ride.. We will see what happens.

They've got a MKV in the shop now that they bagging, so i hope to check it out when it is done.

Somehow I totally missed this.. Until you told me about it today.
