Looks good. The orange is super bright but I think it will be sick in the winter not to mention it will save your wheels.

Keep it. I'm doing the same thing to my Aristo's for the winter (Blaze Orange). It will protect your wheels and personally I think it looks sweet. Not to mention an orange that bright will light up the snow as you drive through it

Dumb question and quite a bit off topic but WTF is up with your intercooler piping sticking through your bumper?

PS i like the orange. And you must be in the shawnessy area or somewhere close by

could be wrong but i think its just for style? theres people everywhere that have custom charge piping that purposely comes out the lower fog grilles, not sure how i feel about it.

Its the result of buying an intercooler off kijiji. Guy said it was made for a mkiv golf/jetta. Infact he was quite explicit. However, when I got to installing it nothing worked. Gave him a shout and he said it was made for 2004 and up- hence my problem. Kind of pissed that he'd make something that silly up. Whatever though, the way it's set up means that I can switch back to stock with minimal effort and I just have to buy a lower valence.

I don't think there is any difference in the front crash bar between the years. Maybe you just need to cut yours? I have seen some that needed that. Those pipes don't look like they will do well in the winter.

Wow....that is bold. I think that it is just too much for my tastes but good on you for expanding your options.

I don't think I could pull the orange off myself, it is an extreme color! It looks like it done really well and bright colors for winter are always fun. Might have to do something bright on my awesome 15'' hubcaps for winter, lol

Re: Blaze Orange on a Galactic Blue Jetta.

but yellow would match soo well!!!!

Ya, I'm not sure what color im going to do yet either. So many options out there. Might try and do a custom color with the plati-dip kit.

On the topic of orange wheels.....I forgot to post updates of my "xmas break" wheel refresh project.

The final result:


I have more pics on my phone and external HD (wheels on the car of course), will upload when I get the chance.
