It's not even noticeable, except when trying to take a picture. Then my hands move around like a random orbital buffer.Damn. Sorry for poking fun. Your stuff sounds serious
That's just crazy talk, right there!Or some decaffeinated coffee.

I'm on the same quest! This looks great, might have to give this a go myself. I think next up will be the lighted 12v outlet. Anyone happen to know a part for that one? And/or if it's possible to take the socket out without taking apart the whole dang center console?Installed a minty spare tire well carpet from a wrecked 2017 GTI. Looks so much nicer now. P/N is 5GM-863-007-CA9
As an added bonus, the Velcro strip on my OEM VW roadside assistance kit sticks to the new carpet.
Next up: underhood sound deadener/insulation.
My goal is to add back all of the MK7 features that were stripped out after dieselgate.

Why stage 2?Installed the South Bend Stage 2 daily on my car.
Then I went to install the new Open Road Tuning coilovers I got, only to find out they completely fucked up my order. They sent me coilovers with MK6 top hats and the wrong spring rates.
I am so mad because I was trying to get the car back together this weekend to break in the clutch. Not sure if I should just put the stock suspension back on, but that means buying a lot more stretch bolts again.
Why stage 2?
Pics or didn't happen.Mounted my ARM FMIC (finally) and got some new shoes. Motegi MR148 CS13 Wheels wrapped in 235/40/18 BF Goodrich comp-2 a/s tires. Stoked!
Next comes my VWR spring install! Wish me luck tomorrow!

That’s your issue. The airlift manifold, at least with v2 uses pressure from the system to keep the valves closed. Kinda sucks because you can’t remove your tank for maintenance and have the bags stay inflated.I also don’t have the full system hooked up yet. Just the management. So there’s currently five (FL, FR, RL, RR, & E) empty ports with no lines attached. Hope to do that either this weekend or next week depending on when my fittings get here. Still waiting on a couple elbows and then I’ll calibrate the system and fully check for leaks.

Curious, why does the state care about the specific wheels & tires that are on the car at inspection? Think they would just care that the tires had a minimum tread depth and brake pad thickness was good.This might make me sound weird...
We have annual inspections and I've learned not to trust any of the shops around here. Therefore, taking my car in on my summer wheels is a no go. So I've been slowly working on moving my inspection date up (currently June sticker, getting inspected tomorrow to get a May sticker. Next year, April...) so that one day my inspection lines up so that I'm still on stock wheels and winter tires and then I can go all summer not worrying about it.
Sigh. So, I took the wheels off and put the stockers back on for my inspection. Since I had the wheels off and they're typically so hard to clean I decided it was a great time to give them a good ole fashioned spit shine.
What might make this seem more odd is that they really weren't that dirty to begin with, but I digress.
