Ready to race!

I had zero knowledge of cars before purchasing my MK7, I could maybe change a tire. I have learned a lot as I've looked into purchasing and installing mods to customize my car.
I wasn't originally going to record everything I've done, but in looking around there aren't many 1.8 builds on here and I was kind of motivated to do so.
Pictures to come!

·Golf and TSI Badge Removal - Used fishing line, a blow dryer, and lots of adhesive removal - Completed

OBD Eleven Tweaks I've done and why:
UrbanJoke V1 or V2 can't remember which one. I honestly couldn't even see a difference between the two, but I love the look of these.
ASR Off to deactivate the performance cut off with loss of traction.
Windows Function from Remote convenience and braggery
DRLS off with Handbrake to give me the option to turn off DRLS while idled.
Auto Lock convenience. However, when cleaning my car it gets very annoying.
Gauge Needle Sweep +5 hp gains.
