I know right. 2 waterpumps, 2 intake manifolds (flapper). no tensioner update... :/ love the car but only so much of the same crap can break before I let it go. plus side be parting it out soon...

96000 miles. slow leak. 1200 to fix with the upgraded rear main seal. I'd do it like I've done everything on my car but don't have a lift.
Dropped off my car at a friends house at 9am to replace the water pump, intake manifold, and perform a carbon cleaning. By 3pm I was on the road ?? This was the first time in 21 years that another set of hands outside of my own have touched my vehicles! Very weird for me to trust ANYONE to work on my car but today was the day and everything came out as expected!
Ps...Anyone looking for a mechanic in central/northern Nj area send me a pm. He’s a current VW tech and is open to working on the side.

Installed a new window seal hoping to get rid of the really bad squeal...so far so good.

Also test fit the diffuser. Maybe I'll do some drilling tomorrow.

Someone on the forum actually had it made. He posted about it a few weeks ago and made a group buy for it, but they banned him for not paying the vendor fee. It looked like only me and 1 other guy sent him money before he was banned and all the posts about it got deleted.
I'm not sure he wants to have any more made since he doesn't make them himself. He made the pattern himself, but a shop cut the aluminum for him. I could ask him for you if you wanted though.
I'll keep updating as I get further into this though. I need to talk to my painter about it having it powdercoated black and I'm considering having the trim piece painted black as well.
Couple pics of the top and bottom of it.

Oh I know he got spoken to about it. Wasn't aware of the ban. I've got his contact info. Interested in the attachment points and how it will stay on

I gotcha...You can see the mounting points on the 2nd picture that shows the bottom side. There's one hole in the center, and then 2 holes near the ends. The holes near the ends line right up with where the fins are on the rear valence, or the bottom side of where the red arrow points. I guess it's enough to keep it on there lol...I think the maxton diffuser is set up the same way. Drill some holes and bolt it on there.

Hoping that talking about it doesn't rub the mods the wrong way.
Thanks for the pics.

today was an expensive day:
- IE CAI (summer sale discount is about as good as im gonna get for a new CAI from them. impatient to wait for a classifed posting.)
- New tires to go on my new fifteen52 tarmacs.
- new hardware and hub rings for the new wheels
also registered my cars which totally counts towards the expenses for the day.
once i get and decide i like the new CAI i might end up selling my Carbonio stg1+2 setup.
