Hello Golf Mk6 peeps, here is my humble and long needed build thread, I've been a part of the forum for quite sometime now, but I finally decided to make a build thread. Lots of stuff got put in since I bought her. and here I am thinking she would stay stock.... in fact I never thought that i would even be on here, so I don't even have pictures of when I first bought her.
Any who, enough rambling, lets get to the action. my build will consist of two things, Performance, and my love for car audio. So far I have started working on the performance part of it.
She is a 2013 Deep Black Pearl, 6 Speed MT. Purchased her MAy 27th 2014. And she had 4k on the clock.
ENGINE MODS:
SUSPENSION:
INTERIOR
EXTERIOR
Parts to be installed:
*Finish up remote start install
*Install Puddle lights pending some triple square bits
*Door Warning lights to be installed as well as rear foot well lights.
And finally, my one true love, DAT BUMP DOE:
ok, so this is a section that will forever be changing probably, as it already has. First started with a Kicker 1000.1 amp paired with a 10" Kicker CVR wired to the factory deck. plans will be to go with an aftermarket Nav system, and everything else will be updated as well. I will update this section as we go. too many options to choose from. will be replacing with some old subs i have just to fill up the bass a little. :thumbup:
Edit: found a great slim subwoofer on another forum, couldnt pass up the deal. went with the Kenwood Excelon slim line 12".
I will be updating this thread in a bit with pictures, as I now have to dig them up.
