Thanks guys! Yes, G260...it would be undrivable with a ZF/3.73 combo. I thought about a chrome kidney, but it just doesn't look quite right.

-Fucking Elring VCG leaks on the exhaust side of the cyl head -_____-

-I drive it like a complete asshole everywhere I go. It's a good reminder why I don't drive it every day

I think you need to put some sort of silicone or something on that whole bottom half of the VCG, its really annoying that it will leak right onto the exhaust. Mine just started doing the same thing....

and the 2nd part... well, thats how I always remember you driving. Its hard to act mature with a well setup 24v.

Fugging perfection . Just needs a chrome Kidney grill . ..

exactly what I think too

Well, she's put away for winter. Figured this was a better time than any to install the new smoked Hella euro smileys :)

Overall, I'm very happy with it. It rides really nice. My only complaint is that it needs 1" taller front springs. The car is raised all the way up in the pictures. Still not tall enough for Portland roads. I bang the skid plate everywhere...

might have to look for a set

Might have to go that way with gc, or some cheap coilover set. If I can raise and lower my car for the seasons that would be great:)

Those are adorable Austin. I take it you no long need a set? Car is looking great, wish I had talked to you about it at the picnic.

I do need a set for the M-Tech cabrio, along with a few other things. This car gets all the nice new stuff!

sounds good

Sounds good Mike; would love to see how they feel in a swap car
Austin: Next summer at 5erfest, you have to bring the car back so I can take a good look at it:)
