Thanks for checkin' out my ride. It's a 1990 B3 Passat with only about 60k miles on it. It's an automatic, although I wish it was a stick. Oh well.

Here's a breakdown of my pages. 1 is my car and it's basic look. Page 2 is the engine compartment and upgrades. Page 3 is the sound system - my pride and joy. Enjoy!

Here's my front end. I've got clear corners with super white bulbs, and upgraded headlights that are much brighter than the stock ones. The beam pattern is much better, and they use H4 bulbs. I've got PIAA Super Plasma bulbs in there.

The car at night - nice white light with a touch of purple. Very HID, without the cost of actually going that route. Some day I'll do it though.

Another headlight shot, just farther away.

The back end. I painted the black license plate panel and the tail lights to match the rest of the car. Looks much better than the black color it had.

Here's a closer look at the wheels. They are 17's, sitting on Federal 205/40/R17 tires. I like the tread, but I wish I could afford a nicer performance tire. Some day!

I'm going to upgrade to Zimmerman cross drilled brakes this summer, but don't have the cash yet.

nice care. I was wondering how you painted the license plate panel on the back. Did you have to use any special primer or type of paint?
