looks great, but with a nice drop they'll look 10x better

In the works as I type this

The wheels, stance and tint, a killer combination. :w00t:

WOWWWW, What are the stats? what rims, exhaust, and lowering kit?

 

[MKsixGTI]

Here's my MK6 at Lime Rock Park. Mods APR chip, Carbonio Intake, Magnaflow catback, VW 18" Topas wheels with Hankook V12 Evos. Please click on photo to enlarge.

How do you like the magnaflow exhaust? I was actually thinking about getting it.

My CSG...

I think OZ wheels were meant for this car. I am assuming with the stance you are using coilovers? If so which ones?

Also what exhaust are you using? do you like it?

Clear or smoked sidemarkers will look better on CSG?

 

[makelja]

What wheels are these?

Those are Seattle wheels. Original 17"s' on the GTD.

Smoked for sure thats what im getting

 

[Graustark]

My CSG...

I must protest. Way too much lowering. Wheel no longer uniformly circumscribed within the wheel well. Why lower it so much? What does that do? It just looks like more expense for worse appearance. Are you trying to glide along the pavement like a sled?

My CS

Hi all, I'm new to the VW scene, I had a 350z before and liked it but a friend from work said I should check out the GTI. I took his advise and bought it a month later. Anyway here are my pics, so far I have upgraded to the GIAC Stage 1 flash (planning on stage 2 soon), turbo back from AWE w/diamond black round tips (which I love its quiet when coasting but blows up when accelerating), stage 2 Carbonio, full LED replacement lights from P2Spec (also awesome), the R line led taillights (purchased from ECS Tuning the tinted version, still need to code too lazy/busy to go get it done), upgraded the fog lights from stock and tinted the windows all around. Trying to keep the stock look to avert the Nazi's that roam the freeways, but I am open to any suggestions anyone might have. Here are just some quick shots taken with my iPhone 4, more to come once I have more time.

haha, your funny. I didn't think there was such a thing as "too low"

Here's my 2011 CSG GTI on the first day I bought it:

And here she is this morning, covered in a half-inch sheet of ice:

Better pics of mine after the Eibach kit was installed. We are supposed to be getting a big storm in the Bay Area starting tomorrow, so its back in the garage for the GTI, and back to driving my van to work:thumbdown:
