So far I've tinted the windows and windshield, installed airlift 3p air suspension, Compustar ProR3 remote start and powder coated the factory 18 inch wheels an Autumn Black with a satin finish. Aftermarket wheels will probably have to wait till next summer or next next summer. I've been in the vw/audi game for a while but started driving my dads little lowrider civic, then a 1998 Izuzu Rodeo (vehicle was hella sketchy to drive) than finally gifted a 2000 VW Passat for my graduation present!! That's when i fell in love.. Bought a used 2008 VW GTI shortly after than a used 2011 Audi A4 than a brand new 2014 Audi TT, definitely the last time I buy a car brand new hahaHere are some pics of the old whips..
This is me standing in front of his low low 1989 honda civic.. he bought it brand new and literally did every thing to the car, full paint job thats not shown in the pic, full gold plated engine, body kit, leather interior, 8x12 inch subs, rebuilt doors to hold 2 6inch mid-bass, 4inch mid-range and tweeter. Won a dozen of trophies and was featured in Lowrider magazine. Loved the scene until one lowrider show got shot up and never showed his car since then. His car club was full of gang members and drug dealers so it was time to leave it behind. He has bought every Mercedes E-class since then and now the whole family rolls german.

IMG_1435 by Anthony P, on FlickrPowder coated the wheels an Autumn Black with a satin finish.. since they are 18's i didn't want them to stand out too much but didn't want plain black.

UOJh2NONTqKCurJboFI8fQ by Anthony P, on FlickrSound system is next on the list.. The last piece arrived today which is JL audio's new vx800/8i dsp amp. Using the fix82 to get the signal then going fiber optic into the vx800/8i which will push the focal ps165f3 fully active up front and push the ps165fx in the rear. Taking a rca signal out of the vx800/8i to the hd750i, which will push two 12w6's. I've had a w6 in all my cars since the GTI, my absolute favorite sub ever! Custom box should be done soon. Nothing too crazy.. I bought this vehicle to be practical. Hopefully it'll be done within the next week fingers crossed.
