How the Passat is sitting currently, wrapped roof gloss black, got a fresh detail before our event last Sunday and took off the side vinyls

A few new shots, got the rear shocks in and am now tucking rear wheels as well, much happier now. Going to keep it like this for a bit I think until winter time, then it's time to shave all the badges and fill the crescent spot in in my hood.

This is clean! Awesome, man.
Any thoughts about painting your rear emblem black? Looks real good on white cars.

Ehh that isn't really my thing, I really like a clean understated look. With that said I'll be getting body work and paint done to remove the front and rear emblems completely.

Wow, the USDM rear looks so much better than the EUDM version I see around all the time.

Great ride man, love the wheels!

Thanks man! I haven't seen any EUDM rears, but if theyre the same shape I may want to switch just for some euro flavor

Ordered new rear shocks so my back should be sitting as low as the front by next week... Pictures to come as soon as their in

I'm a big fan of saloons so I like this quite a bit. The B7 is easily my fav body too.
It's quite interesting how the back end of the Passat's is different here in Europe, the number plate is on the bumper instead of the trunk.
Which gives me an idea of possibly converting the rear? That could be an option seeing as you're keen to mess about with it and I presume it would stand out a bit too as I can't imagine there being a lot of them in America.

That is a great idea and something I didn't know! Thanks a lot man I will look into it

Haven't posted in quite a while - Got my wheels on about two weeks ago and brought it to it's first show. Got lots of attention but still missing something big, cant put my finger on it.
New rear shocks coming soon to drop the back more

It's possible you've just got a battery hanging onto the fringes of life, but draw up a quick diagram of how you've got the compressor wired, and I'll check it over to make sure something goofy isn't happening.

I sent you a message of the diagram, thanks!

Yeah. These VW batteries dont last very long. 3-4 years and since you live in vt the extreme changes in climate wont help. What part of vt are you from?

I live in Brattleboro, VT

Just had another check over the wiring and refer to the diagram and everything looked fine... I'm thinking that because we had doors open all night dur to running airlines, compressor going for testing heights and never turning the car on that we just drained the poor battery dead. Charging now and will hopefully have luck shortly

What does this deserve for wheels??
