Here's something I just noticed. The license plate is already goofy, at what looks like a 10° angle off being perpendicular to level. I never noticed that before until today.
Also set-up the new parts washer that my wife bought me for my birthday! Yes, I'm a very lucky guy
What’s up w the GT-30 wheels for sale? Specs?
If for sale let me know
Hahaha... Nah, not for sale... They are just off the car while I'm working on the front suspension. And no plans to sell them... I'm still really fond of my Volks even after 8 years or so.
Did you buy the lower control arms polished, or do it yourself ?
I've got a local guy that I use for the polishing. He's very reasonable. Think all of those parts were $125 to have polished.

Thanks so much, guys. It's been a lot of work so far, so all the nice comments are greatly appreciated. I've only been in the new house for a few months, so it's still a work in progress.
Any seriously, Rochester, your car is a beautiful piece of work too... plus it's a 6MT so that right there makes it something special!

Seriously. Get up and go look at it.
You are correct about the angle of the rear license plate. I noticed that years ago when I installed my rear diffuser and the angle became even worse. I ended up actually adding a couple (maybe 1/4") spacers behind the top set of screws to help the plate to sit a little more level.
Can’t say that I agree on the toggle switch placement, but commend you on the DIY nonetheless.
i agree as well I planned another spot but wasn't possible so I put it here might get a different switch or move it and get a new center what I was gonna do on the other side is the brake boost switch but then I saw it's better with a momentary switch so really messed with my plan live and learn always research more before pulling the trigger
EDIT: Hmmm maybe itll look betther with a black cover? not sure just was difficult with having that whole middle with switches there already where would you all put it?
A lot of people have put it inside the Center console, where the USB connection is. It’s hidden, and really doesn’t need to be more accessible than that.

i guess I could have put it there i just have a good amount of **** in my center so I thought why rummage around for a switch I might keep it for now where it is and just put a black cover to make it a bit less unsightly
I'll take this as a lesson from here on to plan better haha
