Just some boring driveway shots. I was going to pick up some Sawblades but I think they are going to be a little to aggressive for my OEM+ look. I'm going to take the rear perches out on the coil overs and drop the fronts some more. I need to fix my fender lining on the front passenger side because it's missing a screw and rubbing like crazy. Rolling my fenders should be in the near future as well. The next time I need more tires I might try something a little less beefy. The wheels are 16x6.5 all around and I am running a 205/55/16. I want something that is the same profile but just not as beefy on the wheel.

I plan on doing the headliner and pillars black. I am going to have a shift boot made out of the plaid fabric.

Lol off to a good start. I have had the car for almost 4 years. It was bone stock when I bought it and has gone through several phases but I think she is where I want her to be. The only big exterior mods left are lower it more, install side skirts, and get some new wheels. The motor is where I spent all my money supercharging it and what not. I actually use the cassette player to play my iPod. It sounds so much better than those FM transmitters lol.

I didn't have enough fabric to do the whole headliner or I would have. That was actually a dress I found at a thrift store and cut it up.

very clean ride you have there, and the interior pieces are awesome. For sure less tire would do justice

Haha Love the Burberry. For OEM+, may I reccomend some RS6 wheels?? the RXs are nice, but I think there just too small for a Mk4. Some 17s or 18s would fill it out nice.

Love the Burberry accents...that's next on my list of things to do...my last two cars have had Burberry shift boots, haha...your car is clean! I like it a lot. Def. wouldn't go with Sawblades...Fat Fives would be hot. Should joey mod the headlights too.
Mind telling me where you found the cloth or whatev? (Nvm, read your post above)

I've been looking at some Audi rep wheels here lately. I am not sure what I want. I love BBS's and would love some RS's. I'm kinda looking at some Raderwerk wheels as well, maybe some Mam's or Keskins. It's gonna take me a while to save for whatever I get because I want something nice. Until then I think the BBS RxII's will hold me over. They look good on my car in my opinion. I think if I did a smaller tire it might look like I am just trying to hard to have stance on a wheel that isn't meant to be stretched. I found the 'Burberry' fabric at a consignment store. It is actually a dress that I cut up and used. And just for the record it's woman, not man. I'm a chick :)
I kind of like these and they are $499 a set for 17x7.5 or $599 for 18x8.5

or these for $135 a piece for 17x7.5 or $165 for 18x8.5

you found a burberry dress at a thrift store? Sigh I spend enough at the real place monthly

Ignore my open door. I need to delete my SAI and clean up the hose for my water/meth injection.

Looks good, I'm digging that you're not doing the whole headliner in Burberry

I think I've made up my mind on wheels. Keskin KT-1's with white centers and polished lips. Now I've got to start saving.
