Yeah, it was an $8 change for something I hardly notice but figured what the hell. Your journal definitely has a lot more to it, I'm hoping to start the real mods before summer ends. Yes it is! Its going to keep the interior protected nicely.

Man that is a nice sun shade! I have one since I park my car regularly in the sun at work when I go on trips, but it doesn't fit as well. I got it from walmart while in SW Oklahoma for a few months because the temperatures there were insane. I might have to pick that up.
I like the new plates, I have the PP so we have the same front brakes but mine don't have plates.

The GTI doesn’t have removable caliper plates? Wow didn’t know that! I’m on the fence with them. Could go either way to be honest.

I don't think it has plates on it period. I'll remember to look next time I have the wheel off. I imagine it has to have a room to put plates on since they are the golf R front brakes.

I got one for $56 from Amazon for my wife's Jeep and it's not quite this nice. Makes a huge difference for sure. So I looked closer at the GTI PP brakes and that plate does indeed exist on them. It's just painted red and has the GTI logo on your model. Same brakes though

That is exactly what I'm thinking. Haha....they're both good for different reasons! Not sure which I'll keep on. Easy 20 minute swap, wheels are light.

Floored the car last night coming home (had been driving for 2 hours or more), and smelled oil coming through the vents.
Appears to be PCV related. Will mention it at next service date at 10k miles. This car feels so slow

I occasionally smell oil as well when i first turn on my HVAC. No drips or drops anywhere and nothing shows on the stick. Lemme know what they tell you.

It happened when i floored the car out of a toll booth after I was driving for a solid 2 hours on the highway. I've tried to recreate it but so far so good. Maybe something from assembly burned off. I did hit a horrible pothole on the highway yesterday and now I have squeaking from the front strut towers. The wheels might have gotten tweaked from it but they're still holding air. Need to take it to the dealer...have the wheel warranty on the Pretorias for this very reason.
