Y’all trying to get me killed? Remember I also pick up the kiddo after work.

My first order of dammit I bought Chinese made parts when I did t want to have begun arriving. Tried to avoid Amazon, but looks like eBay has fallen prey to them also... My Bilstein B4 struts and shocks have arrived, just waiting for the strut / shock mounts and H&R lowering springs to arrive then I just have to see when I can install them.

Shit, ride a bike around in LA?

Only for GTA cosplay reasons.

Just to give you guys a glimpse of the driving I deal with on my commute. Its about 6 miles door to door and about 5 miles is on the 405. Its basically like this the whole time. Takes me about 30 minutes door to door...

Six miles in sunny California you could ride a bike to work... (I also am six miles from work and drive)

Anyways, I ordered some Bilstein B4s, and have some H&R Springs on the way too, along with a Valve Cover Gasket. Yes the B4 is an OEM replacement and the springs will lower the car. The car is meant to be a budget build, so naturally its getting lowered without upgrading the stock suspension, other than replacing 18 year old OEM stuff. If the car hangs around long enough to destroy these B4s, I will buy B8s at that point. The H&R springs are only supposed to be a 1" drop so they shouldn't get destroyed immediately.

I washed it too, still pretty dirty, but most of the AZ dirt/ dust has been washed off

Okay, I resisted at first, but that's one dusty VAG.

Should see how it feels inside it...

[roguetoaster]

TDIs and VAG, I see what you did there.

Oh yes, I guess I should answer part of the story that never came to fruition...

A C30 was on the list, but the 2door hatchback was a Beetle TDi. I really wanted to say that I had 2 modern New Beetles, a FF and RR. I can’t believe how stupid sellers are. I had money for a half dozen cool cars but they never replied to close a deal even when we had discussed a little and I was ready to buy. Oh well...

Boltswagon, I can smell the crayons from here.

Congrats again man!

Hope it gives you many years of service without complaining too much.

So... LTWs, clears, and a drop?
