track cars with cages look WAAAAY cooler with the fishbowl look to me.

Every car I’ve owned always got tinted right away, I remember even my first car at 16 (81 bronco 2 ) the first thing I did with that years holiday Monday was 5% tint it😂😂

My 1970 camaro was, is, and will always be Un tinted though! Gotta show off the B/W houndstooth seats.

Finally after 6 months of running the car around with only the driver side isweep skirt I finally put in the pass side 😂 them cleaned the car up and proceeded to take pics with the uncleaned Tiguan as the main subject matter 😂😂.

Also, notched up the engine cover in the back for the hose on the APR catch can setup that I put on last weekend. Now just gotta clean the bay up cause it’s been a while. *cars parked on the steep drive for these pics lol

I change my answer. I'm showing off my plaid seats and golf ball shifter. I'm just trying to make the world a better place. 🤣🤣🤣

Yeah, plaid here, but killed the stock knob, silly plastic thing. I do leave my windows down frequently though, just to taunt people with my plethora of pedals and plaid and beagle fur seats.

Funny enough a common “mod” with the mk4 crowd is to DE-tint thier cars - they love the fish bowl look, I actually think that body style looks really good as a fishbowl

I'm dropping her off for the 40k service (only because it's paid for with VWcare.)........I feel like I'm dropping my child off at school for the first time. I seriously don't trust a dealership....I'm almost willing to pay out of pocket to have my shop do it.

Check everything that the dealer was supposed to do before you leave the dealership. Ask for proof that it was done, not just a piece of paper saying it was done.

I totally agree. Every time I HAVE to take it to the dealer for something I’m in the waiting room like

I found the bottom of the shocks/whatever this weekend, very unpleasant sound. Guess it's time to get it in for the 40k inspection. Everything else has been done for some time.

DO NOT WASH note on the seat and tell the service advisor to put it in the notes.

Plugs and DSG svc would be hard, but not a bad suggestion. I’m throwing Ruth plugs in as soon as I get home anyways though….keeping new oem as backup

That isn't necessarily a good thing from a performance standpoint.
