Re: My 09 GTI

I assume that is an R32 style rear? If so I overwhelmingly approve!!!

Thanks Blair! you may or may have assumed wrong you'll have to wait and see

Wheels are too bling for my taste but it does look good.

honestly, when I decided to buy them I thought they were to bling for me too cause of the chrome, but when I put them on it looked good. Sets it off really nice (maybe cause the cars white). I personally don't like chrome either but this changed my mind and made me appreciate chromed wheels a little more haha

Re: My 09 GTI

Looking good!
I was talking to Prashant last night and he cant stop talking about the dsg farts on this thing haha

Re: My 09 GTI

Thanks man!

Saw your GTI MKVi when we were all leaving for Das Volks love the carbon steel colour on the GTI's haha. The DSG farts are ridiculous haha it's so loud. Prashant was loving it, it was hilarious man his reaction and all. Definitely love the exhaust though. It was so worth it. it's so sweet man we should all meet up sometime have a mini GTI meet hahahaha

Re: My 09 GTI

So here are some pics of what happened on Saturday! For those that have been following, I got a rear bumper got it painted at screamin paintworks. In case you haven't gotten it yet, I got the R32 rear for the car. Got a Eurojet TUrboback Exhaust system from Calgary Autoworks. Thanks Sam for hooking it up.

Install was pretty good except getting the downpipe off. That was a HUGE PITA. Everything else went pretty smooth. Took out the taillights and removed the rear bumper. Separated the 2 bumpers and added the bottom (r32 rear valance) to the oem top half. On to the pics.

Re: My 09 GTI

Awesome build, but the new muffler looks dented, just could be the light though. LEDs look great!

Thanks! good eye! yeah it got dented during shipping from the States. However, Sam at Calgary Autoworks resolved the issue between fedEx and Eurojet and has new one for me to pick up so I gotta pick it up sometime this week. Kudos to the guys at CAW. Awesome guys there.

Re: My 09 GTI

Just another small update but the parts aren't going on until next summer haha. Bought some side skirts and spoiler to add onto the car. Need a lip as well. Running out of ideas atm. Thinking of getting some seats but not to sure yet. Hoping new wheels too...we'll just have to play it by ear and see what i can gather during the winter season since summer is coming to an end sadly.

Here are the skirts and spoiler, still waiting for my skirt inserts to come in though since it's out of stock atm.



And my Pivot XV boost gauge and pod should be coming in tomorrow

Re: My 09 GTI

Haven't been updating for awhile but then again, there hasn't been much to update with since it's been winter. Pretty stoked for this coming summer though. Got a few plans/changes that'll be happening.

I've got a new front bumper coming from Germany that should be here early Feb, ordered new D2S hid's from OEM stock 4.3k to 5k, new wheels are being made and should be here by end of feb, and as posted above, new skirts and spoiler going on there as well. I'll post some pics and comparisons of the HID's when i get them since that'll probably come in before everything else lol.

in the mean time, i got a new customized plate. just my last name nothing fancy.



Leaning towards selling the CCW's when the new wheels come...

Sorry for the lame updates and lack of pictures haha. Once things start coming it'll be better though!
