"This site is dedicated to all the VW/Audi owners out there, Euro Tuners and everyone that gets their hands dirty working on their own cars"
Finally built the Difuser to fill in the back. It did look odd without..
"Thank you to all the folks that Voted me back up. It gives me a push to work on my site. I hope I haven't let anyone down out there, I know I haven't changed any thing in a while.
"Please stick with me as I re-assemble these web pages, they were getting alittle out of hand"
"YES!!!!! The car still hasn't had the suspension updated and is sitting a little high, especially in the rear.!" But it does look nice under the sun, Nice pearl white without the purple and blue hue. At a glance it is hard to tell it is even pearl! it is the the nicest white I ever laid eyes on and that is what I picked.
