passat wagon waggin
Hey everyone, made an intro thread and posted a few of these pics there but figured i would start a build thread cause there will be lots of ongoing stuff from now on, with the new job at a better more busy tattoo shop than before, YES!
Anyway, I got this from a little dealership for 3500, its my first real car ive bought for myself and im super happy with my choice.
Car - 2002 automatic passat wagon, Ink blue with Beige interior and "sweet classy" wood trim. V6 Fwd model.
changes so far -
- Nex Sportline coilovers, bottomed out in the back, and still about 2 inches of thread in the front to go. I plan on Airbagging it within the year, which i why i didnt go for more expensive coils. They ride pretty damn good for $500 coils, not too rouch and not bouncy.
- resprayed black on all the black trim on the bottom, they were starting to grey out pretty bad.
- debagded the rear with the exception of the vw logo, which i prepped and sprayed matte black.
- Nightshaded the tail lights, about 2-3 coats of it, still pretty bright in the dark. (havent been pulled over yet
)
- ebay after market intake, gave it a little kick off the line and only costed about 50 bucks , so overall im happy with it.
To come -
Airbagging
wheels of course
roof rack
wood floors through out
stereo
supercharger down the road a little bit (prob next winter)
Hand built exhaust from headers back *in the works as we speak* should be done in about 2 weeks
headliner
reupholster seats and floor
thats it for now, im sure more and more will load on as it always seems to do.
Pics below! Thanks for reading!
