nice dude...wheel specs and offset? how did you get those covers painted? scuff'em down?

Clean Passat!
...a bit more low and a bit more wide... maybe some camber and it would look sick!

[johnspassat]

wheel specs are 18x8 in the front and 17x 9 in the back offset is 45 i believe. yes i scuffed them up before i painted them. i just used engine enamel and then the wet sanding blah blah. i wont be getting spacers until later when im done with my ko4.

FMIC kit looks cheap, so I feel like it takes away from the car. Otherwise, it looks great.

Looking good, man! The offset & diameter kills the wheels, but the widths are nice. 18's look best on b5's imo. Darn fwd 1.8t's and your staggered setups, us 4mo dudes have to stay unstaggered to keep the diffs happy. Some fat spacers and some more lows would do wonders for this car, also something to tone down the fmic would look nice too. What suspension are you running?

[johnspassat]

oh sorry i have 17's on the front. yes i kind of agree that something with the intercooler needs to be done but i dont like the stock grille that goes with it. i was actually thinking of painting it black but im not sure if that would look alright. right now im running raceland coilovers which im happy with for now.

Unsure about that grille, but still looking sweet.

Great start bro, if it was my car I would just get some black mesh grill off eBay and cover up that intercooler. Some wide wheels would really set this thing off. I guess that goes without saying.

the i got that grillie off of a local seller for cheap. my badgless one fell off on the freeway. i think i want to paint it the same color as my body but im still unsure.
