hood search is whatever. I went to a local vw junkyard and they told me it was from a 97 but I thought the hood they gave me was santorin. I took it anyway since it was only $150 and not in terrible condition, it is santorin though. I'm in school for the next two weeks without my car and if I can't find a europa hood by then I'll probably just put the santorin one on.. and I'll keep that until I can either find a europa one or until I feel like getting it painted..I'm waiting for hear from two people about their europa a4 part outs. I haven't gotten my fines in the mail though so I dunno how much money I want to spend. still haven't decided if I wanna raise it for the winter or not.

I don't know how much yet, they should be coming in the mail within the next week or so.. I'll probably raise it a bit. hella fun with quattro last winter before I was lowered. It'll probably be at like 23.5" gtf this season.. last time I measured it was at a little under 22.5"..

Jesus sorry I read that late last night and didn't realize you said you haven't gotten them yet. This is my first winter with quattro and if you saw my other thread, I'm ******* loving it. Have you ever been real low on snow?

I haven't been low in snow, I put my coilovers in I think april last year.. after the snow was all done. I moved it in my driveway the other day after it snowed and I was plowing 
. I saw your thread, made me jealous. empty unplowed parking lots will probably be your favorite part about winter..

finally got my fines, $117 for following too closely + $75 for tire rubbing when turning.. not terrible.
I'll be rockin a santorin hood until I can find a europa one.. I'm about to go raise my coils but I figured I'd take my last low pictures until spring
you can kinda tell the difference between santorin and europa here.. it's not too noticeable out of light. also I traded my rs4 grille for the badgeless one + $100..
time to raise the car so I can play in the snow tonight
will post more pictures after.

I raised it a little bit.. I'm around 23.25" gtf now and it was fun plowing 5+" of snow today
I figured I'd get mixed thoughts about the badgeless, more hate than like. I'm feelin it for now though. probably will post more pics tomorrow. I <3 snow.
