I'm still looking for a mint/NOS Hella Heckblende for my car. The one I got to run last year was borrowed, so if you know anyone who has one and is willing to sell it please message me!

It's been a while since I posted on here because mostly I've just been enjoying the hell out of my car but I have done a little bit of work to it recently.
I had my buddy Jay over at Sports Car Restoration respray my grille spoiler (eyebrow) since all the paint decided to lift off it, and had him color match my mirror cap while I was at it. This is something I've wanted to do since the car was painted, just like a late model GLI or GTI had from the factory.
I also re-wrapped some of my wiring with hockey tape to get rid of the ugly oil-soaked split loom. I have a few more left to finish up this week and I put a new coolant neck on the side of the head since it was cracked. The next big thing is my steering rack has some play in it so it's time for a fresh manual one. That's gonna be a shitty job.

That's a good feeling.Originally posted by MommysLittleMonster View PostLower your expectations, you'll be much happier.

Ordering a new steering rack for her on Friday. That's gonna be fun to change.
Possibly also some new tires as I would like some more sidewall and the ones I want are on sale right now.

A couple things have happened. I stepped up to a bigger sidewall tire now that they're finally available in the US and I couldn't be happier. The ride is phenomenal, I think the tires look better being a little chunkier, rubber bands don't really suit MK2s in my opinion. I only had to raise the car 1/2" to keep my fenders safe, so now it's riding on 165/50-16 Achilles ATK-R Economist tires, I'll have to snag a pic of them.
Also, on Saturday I decided to slap together a 2nd tailpipe for the coupe after a suggestion made by my buddy Alex a few months back.
