doooon't do red lips!

Don't worry I'm plasti dipping over the red. I may order gun metal plasti dip to gain some contrast. Later I want Style 5s when I put my other VW together which is what these are intended for.

Yeah I'm a little on the fence about them too. During the day they suck and look pink, but at night if I turn on just the city lights and the fogs, people move the fcuk out of my way which is amusing but illegal. I'll probably go back to amber or try out yellow to match the fogs or put in H3 3KL HiDs in the fogs and use white LEDs in the headlights to look like they're on but have the fogs as the main light source. Option options options.

Update:
New Momo wheel (traded the wood one) and some off brand shift knob I won at a Car show. I like the feel of both better. The shift know sits lower than the previous one and the Wheel is a smaller diameter and thicker.

I think what he means is the red lights are... nifty. I think that's the best word. Rock it for a little while, but then do something a bit more, conservative. they're cool, but not that cool. Props on a GREAT build though. That pain is delicious.

I really like this car, but it seems every time you make something look good you take one step forward and then 2 back.

Keep it clean and simple. You will appreciate it much more.

Feel free to point out what i should change I am always up for suggestions. I go to a lot of car shows and even after the paint it didnt get a lot of love, now that I changed it up and went more aggressive people gave it more attention.

Last weekends show at Sac Raceway

Holy fuck.

that car is YOLO swag spiffin.

I think thats gay ass wannabe hipster for it is very nice.

Love the paint, and everything else about the car, even the name (it brings back bad, gross, memories from a party a few months ago)

Story about party, please do tell.

And YOLO is what people say before getting arrested or hurting themselves.

SWAG was code for homosexuals back in the day meaning Secretly We Are Gay.

Hopefully my car has 0 Swag and doesn't YOLO.

Did work today!

Red LEDs in the City Lights
Modified the turn signals, clipped the constant wire so they only blink and don't stay on.
Lowered it.
Plasti dipped the mirror caps
Put on my badgeless grille
New shift knob
Removed the mid muffler, love the sound

In the last two days the cars look changed completely

I like the front end its pretty clean, Id really like to see a duckbill or an NA lip on their instead though. Should have left the tops of the bumpers textured to match the doors and side skirts. The chrome mirror caps could be pulled off with a more agressive wheel set up. Ditch those wheels for something better and lower it....a lot.

Lip is staying. I custom made it for this car from a Volvo lip. Next wheels are in the works I just have to sell these for $700 with adapters and tires. If I was gonna do textured tops id have to buy Euro Bumpers, I don't want to fake the funk now that its cleaned up. Lowering is getting done today. Cant go too far because of the offsets, it was lower before and rubbed like crazy at any turn.

new color is awesome

just not feeling the silver mirrors

Ok I'll take your opinion into consideration and try something new tomorrow. They are OEM Chrome from a MK3.5

For now trying out the black wheel look. Also did the licence plate to match. Its plasti dip so its reversible. Trying out a new temporary look, aggressive to match the Boser theme. Tomorrows goals:

Red LEDs in the city lights.
Cut constants in Corners (Picture was edited to show results)
Delete Resonator
Plasti Dip Mirror housings black.
Lower it.
LOWER IT AGAIN!
