Newbie's passat estate

[big_si]

New to this forum (been perving on the site for a while, decided to sign up!) so thought I'd get some pics up of my wip! It's a 2001 VW Passat estate, 1.8 20VT with remap, Milltek discreet exhaust, and BMC CDA induction kit. It is a silent sleeper!

So this is how I got it...



I'm not a fan of polished/chrome, so since I've had it I've swapped the polished roof rails for black ones, tinted headlights & rear lights, smoked side repeaters (then tinted!) touch of camber, more lows and new wheels, stickers galore!

This is how it stands at the mo....

Next plans are helpers out the front, rear coilover adjusters out and see how it's sitting then.

All comments welcome, if you love it or **** it!

Cheers
Si

Welcome to Stanceworks

Car looks cool, massive improvement from the day you got it

looking pretty sick with the benz wheels

outstanding work. Nice turn around.

Thanks guys, definitely heading in the right direction imo! Got some AMG centre caps I need to have sprayed black, then paint the AMG logos red which I reckon should look pretty subtle.

Main plans though are most definitely mo lows! Can't wait till the weekend to get my hands dirty again! Plus the result of the day's work should be pretty rewarding!

Also having the polished window surrounds painted or vinyl'd black as that's the last bit of bling on the car!

Cheers bud, I came across a pic of yours yesterday while looking through the forum, it looks soooooo badass! Fair play for keeping those clean, I sometimes get a bit slack keeping mine clean!

[Richard_Gud.]

hot as fuck. but stickers ruin everything in the end..they just make it so tasteless.

this thing would be SO clean without them. but thats my opinion.

[cheeky dog]

Stickers need to go, really gives it a tacky look, also stick oem rear light clusters back on and it would look awsome. All the above is my opinion obviously.

But apart from those issues the car looks sick, wheels and stance look brilliant.

[big_si]

Sorry, am a big fan of stickers so they are staying!

The rear light clusters are the OEM ones, they have just been tinted as they were far too bright for me!

looks good !
