[XThirtySeven]

Got some bags/cans for it. I can haz stance?

There's something about this car I quite like, and it take a lot for me to like a MKIII. Nice work.

Thanks I appreciate it!

love mk3's.... made even better when they are white!

needs smocked headlights and an early style grill though....

Thanks! Headlights are smoked E Codes I wouldn't go any darker than that and early grille is in the plans they're just so damn expensive.

No more TSW's they are sold. Rockin these for now.



I am up to something

When the car gets resprayed I'm shaving the rocker panels so either way no need for skirts. I ghetto textured my bumpers because the tops have cracks. New shaved bumpers will be put on when I respray. Also will put on smooth moldings. This is just a temp stage for the car until taxes come in and I can justify painting it. Most likely spraying it Indian Red.

mk3s like your friend serge's look so much cleaner w/o ghetto textured bumpers and ditching the GLX skirts only to truck bed liner....ugh. But hey its your car, glad to see some mk3s are still getting love.

Looks tons better with the new wheels on but i say get rid of the car bra the rest of it has come on nicely tho

[PSU]

Nice progress man.

Not a huge fan of the new wheels though.

[XThirtySeven]

A lot has changed. New headlights, new fogs, new wheels and tires, starting interior work and trimming flares to fit. Car is coming along.

Thanks for the comments guys. Im getting tired of the wheels already. They're heavy with that much meat on them and adapters just add to rotating mass. Im going to put them up for sale and save for diamond racing steelies and 195 45 15s. I miss being low and this jus prevents me. Any input on backspacing for a 15x8? And I went with the Volvo lip because they are inexpensive and different, everyone has a VR lip. Thinking about shaving the trunk as mentioned just dont know if I want to paint yet or do it all at once. The skirts balance out the whole black trim, to me it looks awkward white.

[Anonymoose]

Sweet deal. The black skirts make it look higher though

Off to a good start. I never liked those wheels on a w210 but your car can actually make them look good. Keep it up.

I just can't dig the volvo lip. Maybe because it's reverse mounted? I'm not sure.
