First Euro ;).. & its a wagon

[LowS]

Well I just got a new car.. its a 2000 Passat Wagon. as the title says this is my first euro, I recently sold my last project because it was just getting old and a lot of attention with the cops :P

This was my accord right before I sold it.





I don't have any pictures of the passat when I first bought it. But heres what it looks like when it blows heater hose.

After getting it home I seen that all of my motor mounts were toast! So while it was down I replaced those. I also ended up getting some springs from ECS for $110 and got me a little closer to the ground

I have been driving around like that for a month or so and I needed to be lower and get some wheels.

I decided on getting 2013 beetle heritage wheels.


I also picked up some coils locally for $100

I only installed the rear springs so far, but I am going to have to adjust them to get the height where I want it. I'll probably just adjust it after I put the fronts in.

So now I am waiting for my tires of the beetle wheels, and installing the front coilovers.
This is my to do list:

Exterior:
-New Headlights / HIDS
-New corner lights
-Badgeless grill
-Install beetle wheels
-Install front coils / adjust front+rear

Interior:
-Wire my sub
- new speakers
-Looking to suede wrap some things (I did purple suede in the accord)
-LEDS

Sorry if my thread is all over the place :P But ill keep it updated
