first day on the car (no hub rings im ****ing CRAZY!!)



And now a lot of pictures my friends and i have taken..




with the 10MM spacers in the rear


half a roller





plastidipped the centers of my wheels



All Ready for My first H2OI



Annnnnnnnd on the way there i destroyed my lip which i currently do not have.

lets just say it was shot, no coming back. it somehow got pulled down and dragged at 80-100mph for who knows how long lol

on the other side......

my wheels were killing my fenders...



so i got them re-pulled in the rear and
i got 12mm spacers made from Adaptecspeedware
no more fender banging



M1 abrahms knob



Driving home one day I smelled rubber burning... I pulled over and come to see this.



Luckily the wheel was still rolling on the tire and no part of the rim came in contact with the road.

So I made this meme lol



So as I was stranded I took pics on the good side of the car



Don't mind my brother lol



Loving these mods

Sending my car off to a fellow mk6er who will install for me this weekend.
