CSB3: Why The Volkswagen GTI's Electric Transformation Is Ruffling Purists' Feathers

Research needed. Maybe the texture would be bad but can be wetsanded to perfection. Maybe not. Idk, just a thought

My understanding is the lowest tier pricing you can get includes zero prep work. Basically just driven into a stall and sprayed. So if you're willing to do stuff like sanding\prep yourself, it might come out decent?

if you prep it it comes out pretty okay yeah

Yea that maaco is a no-go if you care about what your car looks like. It will probably smell like fresh paint when you get it back.

A full paint job with all the work done by the shop with show look is gonna be thousands.

There's a guy flying down the river in his boat playing this at full blast. I fuckin love it. lol

Make sure you take an arbys roast beef with you.

This is weird as hell to me. Why is this such a big secret? Why are they hiding how you activate their controller? lol

I want one.

I did it. Valve controller from germany is ordered. The apr exhaust retains the oem valves so I'm hoping I'll be able to use the 2 together.

I don't think it exists. lol
The only other one I've really seen or heard about is millteks and that's just a rebranded ASR controller.

No ones figured out how to code the valves open permanently with a vagcom like I had my R set up. The same coding process works for the 8Y A3/S3, but not the RS3.

If he’s lucky she’s already got that Arby’s roast beef on lock.


If you know what I’m sayin

Gotta send those two Pikachu cards in to get graded so I can sell em for $400/ea

 

[riceburner]

Wow! I always thought when people were telling me that pokemon cards would be worth big money one day (20 years ago) that they were full of it.
