I haven't posted photos of my car in years. Nothing much has really changed but figured I'd pop a few in here for you guys to enjoy.

Missing summer days in the mountains, this was heading out to go ride some DH.

Kept smashing expensive OE IS lips so I took a chance with a $50 one off amazon that's an "m3 look". Had zero mounting hardware so I popped all the OE connectors off, drilled holes in the new lip and bought some stainless hardware. Aside from paint flaking and it scraping on everything it's been solid for 6 months now.

This thing is still in there.

And I bought a new daily driver. It's a 2013 GTI with the DSG transmission. Wanted something fun and still practical for my daily commute and this ticked most of the boxes. Did a few small engine mods but I have an extended warranty till 100K miles so it'll stay mostly stock.

Badgeless grill, yellow fogs and clear markers cleaned up the front.

Not super keen on the wheels and I don't really want 18's but these will do for now.
That's all for now!
