[Dwob]

any pics of the kit itself? How do you like it and how long have you had them? Ive got Nex on my E34 and Im curious what the kits for other cars are like...I love B5.5 Passats

heres a picture on the rears for the nex kit installed. im really happy with my purchase, they ride awesome

alright well i made a decision for wheels...sticking with the rs'

Got a 17x8 and 17x9 set from memoryfab and they are being redrilled for me as we speak, should have them in a week or so, going to refurb them myself and using color pictured below for centers, with polished lips



pretty excited, i was thinking about white and i was thinking about gold, so this is right in the middle! ive used it before on a moped i built and it looks awesome

I vote for these: http://oemplus.com/index.php?main_pa...roducts_id=458

And some nice OEM Merc or BMW Wheels.

thinking about RS' but that seems too easy

Yea, everyone runs rs'.

any ideas?

Either of these could definitely work

[Dwob]

thinking about RS' but that seems too easy, keeping my eyes out for something different? any ideas?

I love the wagon, wish I had an avant... What wheels are you looking at getting?

[fivefourzero]

windsor blue? used to have a b5 wagon, yours looks good but I would go with all red tails instead of smoked if it were mine

I really like those tails you had Dubnation

where did you source them from?

My tails are European W8 Taillights. And I added a chrome ring to get it a different effect. I bought it from OEMplus.com

oh well, thanks for the 2cents though!

Don't be down. It's just a general thing with tinted lights like that. The way the lights become opaque makes it really stand out and look cheapish.

You'd be better off sourcing some real smoked ligts. Though, I don't think there are any specific for the 3bg. There are some for the 3b though, and they fit physically, but you'll have to fab an adapter to get them to work because the 3b taillight electrics are a bit different.




My other suggestion would be to take some thinner or something and get that stuff off, then redo it carefully until you get a darker finish, but not opaque like that.

Other than that, some red tails would be nice.

Sick wagon dubnation!!! Gives the OP an idea of the possibilties.

[dub-Nation]

I really like the color combination. Blue & Creme. I tried so hard to find a creme interior. But I ended up with a cool color exterior and a light gray interior. It worked out while it lasted. Sadly I am parting it out. It used to look like this.

I'll keep an eye out for your build! Best of luck!

Another picture of it now, from the ass end, with bad lighting and a iphone for a camera

Taillights look ugly and cheap, otherwise it's got potential.

oh well, thanks for the 2cents though!
