Ready to race!
Alright, this is going to be a slow and steady process;
BUT I have already done a few little things to get this journal goin'
I have a 2010 6mt Shadow Blue Metallic GTI w/ Black Karthoums and the Autobahn package. I have big but simple plans for her; I want to keep it clean and euro.
The list is as follows:
Cosmetic:
Interior foot well lights--red {x}
Some % Tint someday {still researching cali laws n shiz}
Painted side markers
Delete grill and hatch GTI emblems
Paint black honeycomb on front grill Galaxy Black {leaving the red stripe}
Galaxy Black engine and battery cover {x}
GTI rubber mats {x}
Mud flaps {shit gets dirty where I'm from}
Some sort of new shoes {wheels/rims}
Move license plate to side {x}
Crystal fog bulbs
Fill 5 holes in bumper the dealer drilled for
initial license plate placement :mad0259:
Performance:
APR Carbonio Intake {x}
APR Stage II Intake System
APR Turbo Back exhaust
Forge Twintercooler
Bilstein or H&R Coilovers
A set of track wheels&&tires
APR Front and Rear Sway bars {derr}
Oil pressure gauge
Boost gauge
{looking into an APR tune}
and possibly more to add...
__________________________________________________
I installed the Carbonio today so here are a few pictures;
along with moving the license plate to the side {since cali requires we have a front plate}
And my red footwell lights ^.^
Will update as I go, but I can promise you the really important upgrades will not come until probably this coming summer due to money and allowing the engine to get broken in.
I will update my cosmetic jobs since most are pretty inexpensive and fun to look at. Working on doing a photoshoot with a friend up top Tilden with the entire bay behind me and the car ^.^ {its a killer drive too}
So please stay tuned AND GIVE ME ANY TIPS PLEASE
And remember; I'm a girl so please go easy on me ...
