Nick all you need is some 8.5 wheels, 215/40 tires, 10mm spacers and an offset of 20 on the rears and you have my minimal poke.

That B6's purple exhaust mani is sickkkkkk
If I were to do it again I'd get 215/40. But buying a third set of tires for these wheels seemed a bit excessive .

Finished the armrests finally!







Sorry for the shitty pics. Eventually I'll spray the handles brown.

And here's a pic of the C pillar.



Damn saggy headliner. I'll fix it eventually. Don't mind the canibeat sticker, I'll cover the wrinkle with another sticker That's the beauty of bombing!

I'm going to finish the other pillar at work before I head to NY tomorrow hahahaha.

Dat bloo goo.

It was some sort of super duper foam you put on after the initial wash. It has stained my toe nail permanently I think...

UM. I lowered my drivers side today. Now I scrape more obviously, but the passenger side is still UP HIGH compared to the other side. ****. ****.

I can't make a full turn anymore though, so that's cool.

I feel retarded updating this timeline after everyone made fun of it in NY.

I didn't mock the timeline........ just the accent!!!

Sucks you are still having issues leveling out the car. Is there not a shop you can take the car to to dial it in? Granted I would want to get it right myself but.....

Ah! I knew there was someone who didn't mock the timeline

I'm sure there is a shop, but I hate taking my car to them. However if I can't figure it out myself I may have to bite the bullet... What's the point of spending a grand on coilovers if you can't use them to their full potential?

Time to add that to the list of **** I need to do.

best of luck. I know what you mean. Meanwhile I'm trying to work out how to do this double din swap.......it's getting deeper than I ever could have imagined.

BTW I found 3 spoke sport steering wheels can fit. I was told the wheel you have must be a '98 + because the splines are bigger. I'm getting one for $30.

Yea! I told you ya needed a '97 wheel! That's what I have. The double din swap looks so scary, I wanted to do it but I'm not sure it's worth it...

So Nick, what's wrong with the passenger side? I know you've probably posted it somewhere but I'm too lazy to look back.
