  1. That's a great price, considering that it's KW, but...yes, the budget is killing me too. My finances have other directions right now, so I will most likely wait until June or so.
  2. That's what I was thinking about. A nice set of springs will drop it with about 40mm. Still, my rear shock absorbers had better days, so going for a full suspension might be a better idea in these conditions.
  3. The weather was perfect this weekend, so my Loop is now in summer mode. I've also added some yellow film on the markers, but I'm still not sure about the way it looks. Plans for the upcoming weeks include color coding the door handles and changing the light bulbs with Philips WhiteVision. As for the eternal problem, ride height...I'm still not decided upon coilovers, even though it would look awesome.
  4. Finally, some snow around here. Took this pretty cool (if you ask me) snapshot this morning:
  5. I was thinking about replacing my parking lights with CREE (that's how the ones in the second picture are called, as far as I know) leds too, since they're actually the brightest available. Are these any good, compared to SMD leds?
  6. Went to a wedding a few weeks ago and the guy who took the photos was a VW fan, with a modded MK4. Just received this really nice snapshot of my Blue Loop
  7. Hey, Nothing new lately, as my finances had some other directions. The whole interior got cleaned with a steam vacuum and it looks really good now. Next week, I'm putting the steelies on, as it seems that we're going to have snowy days earlier than expected.
  8. What tyres do you have right now? For a 1.4, 6.2/100 km in those conditions is more than decent. Last time I got home from college (~300 km, that crappy Defileul Jiului included), I got 5.2...
  9. That wheel...it's..it's beautiful! Man, I can't wait to get mine done. It's the only thing that's ruining the interior.
  10. Saw the loop on Facebook, in the photoshoot from the Streetmaniacs event...man, I'd love to get there one day How much for making the steering wheel like that? Mine needs the same treatment soon, as it kinda ruins the look of the interior.
  11. Many thanks! Took a whole hour to make it and apply the stripes but it was worth it.
  12. Mirror is done: I'm not so sure about it...maybe keeping the checkered version would've been better. Any thoughts?
  13. This whole transparency/opacity thing is creating confusions ) The darkest tint you can get is the one which has "Transparency 5%" written on that tiny label the service applies.Mine has 20% transparency, hence 80% opacity. Everything is legal, I did my research before doing this. I don't have any on the front windows, since that's not legal anymore. A few months/years ago, you could apply it to your front windows too, but you were supposed to stick to 70% transparency, or something like that. It looks way better with a layer of tint on the front windows too, but hey, the law is the law...
